As a founder member of The Challenge Academy Trust, the College is part of TCAT’s aim to deliver a cohesive education pathway from primary through to sixth form. We are a friendly and inclusive college with a consistent record of high achievement, offering around 70 A‑Level, Vocational and T‑Level courses. Priestley students have a consistent record of achieving a pass rate of 99% or better in A‑Levels and each year around 30 A‑Levels see a 100% success rate.

There are now more than 2,000 students at Priestley who learn on a modern campus that we are constantly looking to improve. Priestley is not a college that stands still.
