Priory Fields School is a proud member of the Whinless Down Academy Trust, a multi-academy trust dedicated to providing exceptional local education for local children. The Trust’s core belief is that "learning changes lives," a principle upheld through close collaboration with our sister schools, St Martin's and Vale View, to ensure an outstanding learning experience for all pupils. Located in the heart of Dover, Priory Fields is a two-form entry school operating from a modern, purpose-built facility set within extensive grounds. We are supported by a friendly, dedicated team of staff who work collaboratively across the Trust to deliver an exciting and engaging curriculum tailored to meet the needs of every child. We are committed to the professional growth of our employees and provide a comprehensive programme of professional development for staff at all levels. A dedicated team of support staff, including a Family Liaison Officer (FLO), a Parent Support Advisor, a pastoral support team, sports coaches, and a specialist music teacher, further enriches our school environment.
