Furley Park Primary School was built and opened in September 2000 in response to the growth in population in the area. The school is sited on one side of the estate and overlooks woodland and fields. The building is on one level with an administration area, large hall and kitchen as well as 14 classrooms and a library. The classes accommodate 30 children each with two classes in each year group. Staffing consists of class teachers with the support of teaching assistants, secretary, caretaker, deputy head and headteacher. The governors are involved in the life of the school and there is an active Parent Teacher Association.
