I am very proud that Priory School maintains a family atmosphere throughout where pupils feel safe, secure and can thrive in all areas. It continues to focus, as it has done since its foundation, on the development of each individual pupil, building on the solid foundation of its independence, its small class sizes, its pastoral flexibility, and its sound academic results.

    Our Lady of Walsingham

    Although non-denominational, Priory School is run with a distinct Christian ethos. To reflect this, the school name was in 2017 extended to Priory School of Our Lady of Walsingham, with approval from the Bishop of Portsmouth, the Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham and the Custodian of the Basilica at Walsingham.
