Prior's Field School

Prior’s Field has a unique atmosphere – small enough for tailored, individual care yet large enough for a wide and exciting curriculum. Girls of all ability are welcome at the school which has an excellent track record of being consistently placed within the top 5% nationally in terms of ‘value-added’ achievement. The school offers small classes, excellent teaching, state of the art facilities (including an outstanding science centre, multi-media digital language lab and fully equipped sports hall) and a successful balance of challenge and support.

Relationships and superb pastoral care are key to the school’s success. Staff know the girls well, encouraging them to be themselves, think independently and engage fully in the life of the school and wider community. The varied programme of extra-curricular activities provides opportunities for pupils to develop a wide range of talents, interests and teamwork skills.

Boarding is at the heart of the school, with weekly boarding a popular option for London-based families. The weekend minibus service to and from London enables families to spend quality time together. Sixth Formers live in a purpose built house where they lead independent lives under the guidance of the Housemistress and Sixth Form team. Upper Sixth students have en-suite study bedrooms.
