Join Us At Portway School
This page offers all the details about our school and how you can join Portway Juniors, whether you are a student who is considering enrolling in our school or have heard about a vacancy at the school and want to be a part of our team.
Some quotes from parents of pupils at our school:
"Our son has had amazing opportunities to build his confidence and learn many skills. These have been residentials, ukulele concerts, speaking to an audience, dressing up days, visits and visitors to make learning engaging. We couldn’t be happier with the care and education both our children receive."
"My daughter has participated in a number of experiences that make her time at Portway truly exceptional. I wouldn’t hesitate to send my child to the school in future."
"Portway Junior has been a joy for our daughter - she has flourished in such a creative and supportive environment."
"Thank you for inviting me to be part of the sports ‘help team’. I had a wonderful afternoon and the children were amazing - excellent Ambassadors for Portway. I was particularly pleased to see how well all the children had come on and their support for and dedication to each other. They had a great opportunity and were a real credit to the school."
