OUR COMMITMENT
At Princes Risborough we emphasise ‘learning’ as the core function of the school and believe that everyone involved with the school should model its importance. We also believe that students learn best when they are excited and involved with their subject, hence the school motto “Enjoy and Achieve”.
We believe that it is this philosophy which has led to 2011 being the most successful ever for exam results. As a Technology College we have the advantage of being at the cutting edge of curriculum development and having modern facilities and equipment to help our students succeed.
We believe in and constantly strive for the highest standards, both academically and in behaviour. Our students will be the citizens of the future and we must prepare them for 21st century life.

Princes Risborough School Admissions Policy 2013-Consultation. Head's letter re: Consultation. If you drive your child to school and use the Hawthorn Road entrance please drop-off at the bottom of the road (the junction with Oak Road). Do not drive up to the school gate as doing so causes dangerous obstructions in the road and difficulties for residents . It is just a short walk up the road for the children and should not be an issue for anyone. If you believe you have a reason why you need to drive up Hawthorn Road please contact the school and advise us of the reason, along with your registration number. Many thanks for your co-operation.
