Priory School

is a family-orientated school devoted to the promotion and celebration of our multicultural community in order to inspire and foster a lifelong love of learning on a truly equal footing. Our Catholic heritage is our foundation stone from which we instil in students the moral education to become virtuous global citizens.



We strive to embrace the talents of all students recognising the power of opportunity and offering a broad range of extracurricular activities, alongside a chance to contribute to the community we serve through charitable missions. We understand the importance of nature to develop healthy, and positive lifestyles with an outdoor curriculum that takes full advantage of our 17 acres of beautifully manicured parkland grounds.



Taught in select small class sizes, our curriculum is diverse and rigorous fostering curiosity, challenge, and independent learning enabling us to target the needs of the individual. We invest in the development of our teaching staff, and those at early career and entry-level, understanding our responsibility to ensure excellence for the future.



We are proud of our heritage and the international network to which we belong, enabling us to fully encompass the values of our global family, striving to make a difference on environmental and humanitarian issues.



We promote the importance of mental health within our exemplary pastoral model where an onsite school counsellor and mental health ambassadors support our students, developing strategies to manage the modern world effectively.



Overall, our 'high aspirations and high expectations' encourage determination and resilience equipping our students with empathy, flexibility, and a strong moral compass to become model, global citizens of the future.

Priory school is committed to educating the leaders of tomorrow, today.
