Langham Village School
About Langham Village School
Langham Village School is a small state primary in North Norfolk, part of the Norfolk local authority, and it sits among a competitive field of 344 primary schools in the county. In the most recent local rankings, it placed 197th, which puts it in the middle of the pack, though it's worth noting that the top three peers in the area — Ditchingham Church of England Primary Academy, Surlingham Primary School, and Stalham Academy — all achieved perfect ranking scores of 100, setting a high bar. The school itself is a mixed, non-religious primary for children aged 4 to 11, with a current roll of 103 pupils against a capacity of 105, so it's running very close to full. Just 7.8% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is below the national average. The headteacher is Polly Kossowicz, and the school has a Forest School, a sensory room, and an art studio among its facilities, which gives a sense of the kind of hands-on, inclusive environment it aims to provide.
