Highfield Parent
The National Curriculum sets standards of achievement for pupils at Primary School. National Curriculum Tests are taken when pupils reach the end of each key stage. These tests give an indication of how pupils compare to the national standards. Highfield Priory continues to out-perform the National Average with our NCT results.
Our NCT results place the school in The Sunday Times top 10 preparatory schools in England, a position we have maintained for many years. For the past twelve years, we have consistently been in the top thirty with our current position being 5th = in England and 1st in the North West. This is our fifth year in the top ten.
