Headmaster's Welcome

It is a pleasure to welcome you to our website and to share our school with you.

As you explore our website, I hope it will be apparent that life at Highfield is about the education of the whole person and that a Highfield pupil is a happy, intelligent and confident child who is aware of and interested in the wider world and in their local community. The wealth of opportunity open to our pupils encourages an active mind, an active body and a true desire to Aim High in all that they do in life.

Highfield Priory School has a long history of academic excellence. Its National Curriculum Test results have placed it, for the last thirteen years, in the top thirty Preparatory schools in England and in the top ten for the last six years (The Sunday Times 2022). This year, it was ranked 5th= in England and 1st in the North West. Our 2023 ISI Inspection observed that, "Highfield Priory School is an academically successful school where pupils achieve consistently high attainment and 11+ placements in local grammar schools".

Whilst our website will indeed offer you an insight into life at Highfield, a school really needs to be seen in action. Please do call me to arrange a tour of our School and Nursery or join us on Saturday the 22nd of March 2025 to explore The Sunday Times Top School in the Northwest and our Brand New Nursery and Preschool.

I look forward to meeting you.

Mr Jeremy Duke

Building Strength and Individuality

The latest from Highfield Priory

This morning, our halls were filled with the sweet aroma of freshly baked croissants and pains au chocolat ahead of the Year 5 French Breakfast! 🥐

Not only did they prepare the pastries themselves, they ordered their food in French saying, ‘Je voudrais un croissant et un pain au chocolat s’il vous plaît’ with confidence and perfect pronunciation.

All this, with French decorations and French music playing in the background, made it feel as though we were in Paris! 🗼

The Year 5 children went home with their very own QR code this week.

Each child recorded an audio file of their favourite piece of creative writing that they have written this year. 🎤🎧

Parents can now scan the QR code and listen to their child reading their own work whenever they want! 😊Photos from Highfield Priory School and Nursery's post
