Princethorpe College is a mixed 11- 18 independent Catholic day school with around 900 pupils, 200 of whom are in the Sixth Form. We aim to encourage a lifelong love of learning and an understanding of moral values, and to put young people on the road to happy and fulfilled lives.

Year 7 - Year 10 Entrance Exams Saturday 9 November

Princethorpe College is a Catholic,
co-educational, HMC independent day school for around 930 pupils aged eleven to eighteen and welcomes members of all faiths and backgrounds.

The College is renowned for the way in which it looks after its pupils and is characterised by its strong Christian ethos, which underpins everything we do.

The school has a unique history, beautiful surroundings and unequalled character. The atmosphere is warm, open and friendly, but the traditional values of courtesy, discipline, organisation and mutual respect are expected from all.

We pursue academic rigour, want our pupils to be enthusiastic about hard work and to play a full part  in the broader aspects of school life.

Our aim is simple: to treat every pupil as an individual, supporting them as they grow into mature, confident, resilient and well-rounded young people with a strong set of moral values to guide them through adult life. 


VAT on School Fees - The Foundation's Response
We have just announced our response to the Government’s plan to introduce VAT to private school fees from January 2025. If implemented the College will be reducing its fees so that the gross increase passed on to parents will be 5%, substantially less than the 20% VAT rate, which we hope will come as good news.
