Priorsfield

Priorsfield is an all girl school. We loved it, it's a school that empowers
girls to be girls. It's a small school and feels like a family







the cafeteria



This school wasnt as polished as Cranleigh. We did get toured by the school principle. I didnt take as many photos because I felt it was rude while she was showing us around. There are advantages and disadvantages to an all-girl school. This school was much more low key. Everyone was super
friendly. We got to walk into all the classrooms and meet the teachers, where at Cranleigh we werent allowed to disturb the class. There is a pool but there is no team she would have to go to either Charterhouse and use the pool or the local community pool, Tatiana would have to join the local swim team. They did have a theatre it was much smaller. I guess girls would play boy parts. They had a cooking class where Cranleigh had cooking as a weekend activity. They had a weekly sewing class, where Cranleigh had sewing as part of the fashion design class. They also had a recording studio and an amazing music center. This school was definitely geared towards girls. Not saying that girls should do all the cooking, cleaning and sewing but we all know it's who ends up doing it. She might as well know how to do it properly. This school is really geared towards the arts if your daughter is more academic she would probably go to Saint Catherines. Tatiana is not academic and definitely leans more towards the arts so this school is perfect.
They do dances with some of the local boys schools so there is interaction with boys.
I asked who are the boyfriends of the girls and they said the girls that come here that have brothers :)
Weekends: most girls go home. Tatiana is welcome to go with a friend for the weekend
(this is how they meet the brothers) or activites are provided.
In the dorm she would get her own room
