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 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

🎨🌍 Year 4 Artivists in Action!

Inspired by the artist The Invisible Man, they’ve created striking pieces highlighting the urgent environmental issue of global warming.

Their artwork draws attention to some of today’s most pressing challenges:
πŸ”₯ Growing wildfires
❄️ Arctic warming
πŸ¦‹ Changing migration patterns of the Monarch Butterfly

We’re so proud of our young artivists for using creativity to raise awareness and show how much they care about our planet.

πŸ‘ Let’s celebrate their talent and passion for change!
