"Growing determined, courageous, kind individuals proud to be Priory children."
Priory School is an inclusive and nurturing community with strong links to good secondary schools; the headteacher emphasises opportunities for all pupils, values inclusivity, and notes that 25% of Year 6 pupils progressed to grammar schools, with outcomes aligning with national averages by leaving Year 6.
Priory offers three levels of SEND provision: Mainstream Provision – Inclusive teaching with adaptations, interventions and access to specialist strategies; Woodlands Resource Base – a 30-place provision offering structured support for pupils with moderate learning needs who benefit from a smaller setting and some access to mainstream lessons; Orchard SEND Unit – a 50-place specialist unit for pupils with complex needs, primarily linked to autism, requiring an adapted curriculum and low-arousal environment. Admissions to Woodlands and Orchard are managed by Slough Borough Council via the EHCP consultation process. Individual Provision Maps (IPMs), regular review meetings and support with referrals and assessments are provided; transitions and next steps are planned with families.
Priory is a foundation primary school with no catchment area. If oversubscribed, distance will become a factor for allocation of spaces.
