Welcome to Prendergast School.  It is an honour and a privilege to be Prendergast School’s eleventh Headteacher and to work with staff, students and families.  Staff here are passionate about ensuring the very best opportunities and education for all students.  Our motto and ethos is ‘Truth, Honour, Freedom and Courtesy.’  We are all on the same side, working to support all students to excel.  We take pride in building strong relationships with students and their families.

We have a long history of providing exceptional education to young people.  We were founded in 1880 as Prendergast Grammar School for Girls on a site in Catford provided by the Leathersellers’ Company, which then funded the school’s move to its current site in 1995.

We are now part of the Leathersellers’ Federation of schools, a group of three secondary and two primary schools as well as Prendergast 6th Form.  We are very fortunate to be part of the Federation and receive a lot of support from the Leathersellers’ Company, that helps our students succeed.

We are very proud of our last Ofsted judgement of Outstanding in all areas, our third Outstanding judgement in a row. We are described in the most recent report as ‘exceptional’ and having ‘exemplary attitudes to learning’ across the school. We do achieve great academic results at Prendergast School (more information is on the website).  

We value our talented and hardworking employees and know that in order to continue to succeed in our aims it is essential for us to support and develop them and ensure we continue to be a great place to work.

With this in mind we offer a number of employee benefits.
