Princes is a Primary School for pupils with severe learning difficulties. Over 55% of children have an
additional diagnosis of Autistic spectrum disorder and many have medical, physical or sensory needs.
The main school building is situated in Toxteth and we have two satellite units at Smithdown and
Phoenix Primary Schools. We have a very supportive governing body, staff who are committed to
providing high quality and enjoyable teaching and learning opportunities and a spacious, well
resourced environment with extensive grounds and play areas. Children are admitted from across the
city. We have strong links with both special and mainstream schools across the region.
We currently have 132 pupils across the three sites.
