History
Longfleet School was originally located opposite St Mary's Church on Longfleet Road, but moved during the late 20th century to its present site and was constructed by Dean & Dyball. The old school buildings were demolished and are now the car park for St Mary's new church centre building and site of The Adam Practice.
The school remained mainly open during the Teachers' Strike of 17 October 2013.[3]
