Our Year 7's look really smart in our red Priory School jumper with a white shirt, Priory School tie (for boys) and black trousers or skirt.
Welcome to our digital prospectus. We have once again made the decision to run with a virtual open evening and live school tour format for this year. We believe this is the right approach in these continuing uncertain times. Please scroll down this page to hear and see how our school runs. We are determined to give you the best insight we can and hope you enjoy what you see. You can book on to both our virtual open evening live Google Meets and our school tours further down this page.
The Priory School is a learning environment which promotes high aspirations, high expectations and academic success.
In leading the school I have four key aims:
• To be ambitious for academic success for our students.
• To ensure that our students enjoy their learning.
• To create opportunities for students to develop the key values of responsibility, respect and resilience.
• To keep students safe and happy at school so that they can learn effectively.
At The Priory School we have a dedicated team of teachers, support staff and governors who believe that every child has the right and ability to succeed. To embed our students’ learning, we need to ensure that we have strong partnerships with parents and carers. By sharing the same educational goals and working collaboratively, we will be able to lay the foundations for the future success of your child.

Supporting students to become life-long learners who are motivated, self-regulating, reflective, civic-minded and effective leaders.
Encouraging students to be inclusive, tolerant and able to demonstrate democratic values.
Equipping our students with the skills to meet the challenges and demands of 21st century life.
These videos introduce some of our key members of staff who introduce some of the many elements of The Priory School that make it such a great place to learn. As you will see, alongside a dedication to academic success, our school promotes each child to get involved with and succeed in a huge range of other opportunities that are on offer here.
