The Priory School is a small academy primary school situated in the picturesque hamlet of Pamber End, North Hampshire. There are 169 children in seven classes; children entering in the year they become five and leaving at the age of eleven. The school provides a happy stimulating environment where children love to learn. It provides an excellent education for all and offers a wealth of opportunities that enable children to develop key skills that will last them a life time.

The school is justly proud of its reputation within the local community and everyone associated with The Priory was delighted with the "Outstanding" judgement awarded by Ofsted inspectors in March 2010. Although the report accurately captures the atmosphere as well as the achievements of the school, we are always looking at ways to improve even further. We believe that The Priory School is unique. It is steeped in history and yet it looks to the future. In recent years, there has been a significant investment in new technology and this is used creatively to enhance teaching. Children are encouraged to learn in variety of ways and there is a very good balance between teaching and independent learning. There are many opportunities for children to be physically active both on the sports field and playground and there are many inter schools' tournaments. Confidence and eloquence are developed through a range of speaking and listening activities and leadership qualities are nurtured through our house and prefect system. There is a strong emphasis on good manners and high standards of behaviour are expected.

We would like each child that leaves The Priory to have enjoyed their time with us, to feel it has been of real benefit and that it will serve them well in the future.
