Priory Park Community School is an alternative provision independent school in the Wren's Nest area of Dudley to provide support for young people with Social, Emotional and Mental Health difficulties or who are at significant risk of permanent exclusion from mainstream school.
The community focussed school is unique to the borough, offering a broad and balanced core curriculum but also focussing on mentoring through sporting activities.
This is delivered through a strong partnership with Priory Park Boxing Club and outdoor education, making use of the Wren's Nest Nature Reserve, a geological Site of Special Scientific Interest and one of the most important geological locations in Britain.
Wren's Nest is also a Local Nature Reserve, a National Nature Reserve (NNR) and Scheduled Ancient Monument, so lends itself perfectly to cross curricular learning. The school offers a warm, welcoming environment and encourage high parental engagement.
