Aims of the school

This school aims to create a caring Christian environment which helps children to become aware of God’s presence in their lives and makes then aware of the need to be caring towards others. It values the individual qualities of each child and encourages them to aim for their best in everything they do - whether this is class work, games, behaviour or anything else connected with school.

We hope that the Catholic ethos of Priory School helps to create a synthesis between tradition and the need to develop a curriculum appropriate for children growing up in the next century.

In summary, our main aims are to:

  • Nourish the growth of mind and body in each child by developing his/her abilities, talents and interests.
  • Nurture the spiritual development within each child.
  • Create a happy family spirit promoting a caring Christian environment.
  • Foster the social and personal and cultural development of each child.
  • Provide the firm foundations for successful learning.
  • Help the child understand the world in which he/she lives.
  • Provide experiences through which the child learns co-operation and respect for others.
