Welcome to Pyrland School

We are unashamedly ambitious:

  • Ambitious about school results
  • Ambitious about student opportunities
  • Ambitious about a safe and supportive culture
  • Ambitious about excellent behaviour

Our community deserves nothing but the best. I hope this website and our news section give a good flavour of our work, but do contact us if you have any queries.
