The school is in the centre of an early 1950s Council Estate consisting of three storey blocks of flats and low rise housing some now purchased under 'Right to Buy' schemes. The demographic is working class with some owner occupiers.

The Long Knowle Mound
A crescent shape of engineered fill with grass was constructed earlier this year on the open space beside the school. The grass has not survived the weather or use by children during the school holidays and has been overtaken by weeds. The only green is the astro-turf next to the slide. When I saw the architect's proposals for this I expected something much larger. It turned out to be less a mound and more of a molehill.
