St Augustines Priory

Welcome to St Augustine’s Priory, Ealing’s top performing Catholic, girls’ school: a visionary school with a unique community. Our girls and staff have the courage and appetite to tackle everything which life throws at us. We have been educating girls in the Catholic tradition since 1634 and we actively welcome girls of all faiths. This means that students leave us rooted in values which make them effective in their personal and professional lives.

Our founding story is inspirational – it tells of the ability to be agile, to adapt to rapidly changing times with integrity and grace. As a Catholic school our faith matters to us because our world is yearning for people who can use their voices for others. Students of all faiths are actively welcomed and we all learn from each other through dialogue, respect and active listening. Students leave us rooted in values which make them effective in their personal and professional lives.

Much use is made of our exceptional outdoor space – for bespoke outdoor classrooms, the farm, the outdoor stage. All of our pupils benefit from our 13 acres with an unrivalled freedom to enjoy growing up. They are all learning how to cherish and care for our common home.

An outstanding education for the future – or what many people are styling Education 4.0 hinges on self-confidence, collaborative skills, emotional intelligence and self- awareness. All of these skills are embedded in our way of proceeding at St Augustine’s Priory.  Our girls go on to the best universities in the world. From Oxford, Cambridge and Imperial College to other world-class universities such as Durham, Bristol, Edinburgh, Exeter and King’s College London.

Vision, Values and Mission
Our world is yearning for people with vision and hope. Our ambitious Mission Statement comes out of our knowledge that each child is unique. We want them to learn how to change their world. Everything we do is driven by this – when you meet one of our pupils ask them how they think they will change the world. They will surprise you.
