Welcome to Prior’s Mill CE Primary School. It is both a pleasure and a privilege to be Headteacher, serve the local community and represent the amazing children and families that contribute to our school. On behalf of myself, staff and governors I hope you enjoy the opportunity to find out more about Prior’s Mill and the range of opportunities we can provide for your child to fulfil their potential.
We are a large mainstream Church of England school based in Billingham, Stockton-on-Tees. Our Christian foundation is at the core of who we are and we seek to live out our Christian faith and values in all we do. The Prior’s Promise provides a distinct set of Christian values through which pupils and staff endeavour to live by both in and out of school, it is entwined within our curriculum and provides opportunity for academic, personal and spiritual growth.
Our school provides a safe, positive and encouraging environment where children feel listened to, valued and cared for. Our dedicated and enthusiastic staff team strive to provide the best possible education, outcomes and experiences for our children. We have strong partnerships with parents and carers, who we believe are vital to the education of their children, and we look forward to seeing you on many occasions to celebrate successes, discuss progress and share how you can become involved in your child’s learning journey.

Our new Art unit is based on our class book, Kensuke's Kingdom. The children spent our first lesson looking at different types of beach art before recreating their own in pairs. They used sand, drift wood, sea glass and shells to create a variety of patterns and designs.

Today, Year 1 started the New Year in style with their Hook Day for their new History unit 'What was the purpose of a castle?'
The children enjoyed making their own crowns, designing their own coats of armour and making castles from cardboard boxes and tubes.
Their teamwork and ...effort was incredible and their costumes were amazing!
In keeping with today's weather, Year 5 have sketched/painted representations of a storm after starting their new class text, Kensuke's Kingdom. They listened to sounds of a thunderstorm, looked at a range of different images and read the beginning of the book before recreating their own.... ⛈🌪
Year 5 had a wonderful time at their Christmas party this afternoon. They danced, played games and ate snacks! Merry Christmas from everyone in Year 5 🥳
Thank you to all the parents and carers who attended the Y5 Christingle service this morning. The children spoke and sang beautifully 🎄
Christmas was in full swing yesterday as children across school celebrated the season with a festive lunch! Many a cracker was pulled and many a hat was worn! 🎄 🎅🏼
