Local Schools

Our area is lucky to have a wide range of good schools. Those listed below are on the Government Register of Schools in the DA3 postcode area. However a lot of pupils in the Longfield/New Ash Green area go out of area, especially at Secondary level. For example, a significant number attend out of area Grammar and Church schools.
