Longacre School

Guildford, Surrey, South East · GU5 0NQ

Longacre School is a small, independent co-educational school in Guildford, Surrey, with around 212 pupils on roll. Its size lends it an intimate feel, and the absence of mobile phones across the school marks out a deliberately focused, screen-free environment. Older pupils who walk to and from school may keep a phone, but it is handed in at the office on arrival and returned at the end of the day. The school is led by Head Sophie Baber.
