Cartmel Priory CE School is a special and unique place to teach. It is a small, rural 11-16 school in an idyllic setting with 340 students on roll (360 from September 2023) where students and staff have created a very caring school community. It is one of two Church of England secondary schools in Cumbria, both of which are non-selective convertor academies. Our intake is fully comprehensive. We have, therefore, students of all abilities and social backgrounds, but with lower than average levels of deprivation overall (as measured by % FSM). The school has consistently been amongst Cumbria’s highest performing schools (Progress 8 score 2022 +0.41).
