A very warm welcome to The Priory School.  I hope our website gives you a clear insight into our core values and a flavour of the excellent, holistic education that our student body receive. 

The Priory School is a unique and vibrant community which epitomises all that can be achieved through a dedicated, and caring staff working tirelessly to encourage an independent and resilient student body.  As soon as you enter the building  you notice a very special, mutual respect between staff and students. Our size allows us to know every student as an individual but also gives us the flexibility to provide a high quality learning experience.

Our core values are encapsulated within the school’s message to our students to always endeavour to be  Selfless, Self-assured and Successful. Naturally there is a  focus upon academic success to ensure that each individual fulfils their true potential. We are traditional in our expectations of students in terms of behaviour and conduct but we never lose sight of innovation in the classroom. We endeavour to ensure lessons are dynamic, and exciting to capture and captivate young people’s interest and love of learning.

However, your child will gain so much more than this from their time with us.  Our House System and wider curriculum will allow them to explore and experience new opportunities; nurturing the whole person.  We deliberately place ‘Selfless’ before all else;  we truly believe if you develop this, the rest will follow.

I look forward to welcoming you in the near future, to meet you and your child but more importantly for you to meet our students and see them at work and play.
