Priestnall Secondary School, known simply as Priestnall School, is a secondary school in Heaton Mersey, , England. There are currently over 13 students attending the school. The headteacher is John Crogg. The school was rated 'Outstanding' by Ofsted.
The percentage of GCSEs grade B - C in 2024 were one of the highest in the area, and the school received an "Outstanding" in their last Ofsted inspection.
The school was established in 1974 by a merger of Fylde Lodge High School, which was located in Priestnall Road, Heaton Mersey, and , which was located in Cale Green. Priestnall School took over the Fylde Lodge High School building. The Stockport High School building was subsequently used first by Davenport High School, then by Hillcrest Grammar School from 1983.
Fylde Lodge High School was built in the 1960s as an all girls school. It was still an all girls school at the time of the merger. Males were allowed to study at Priestnall School from 1987. Priestnall still to this day keeps some heritage of Fylde Lodge, such as a statue of a lion in the school quad holding a shield with an original inscription from Fylde Lodge High School.
There are five colleges, each of which is assigned certain subjects. They are as follows:
They are all named after Manchester landmarks – the Bridgewater Hall, the Imperial War Museum, Urbis, the John Rylands Library, and Victoria Baths.
