Sixth Form
The Sixth Form Centre is home to Café Six. This popular café serves a selection of sandwiches, paninis, soup, salads and daily Chef’s specials for lunch. As well as a full coffee menu, the café also serves a selection of cakes and iced tea and coffee.
We are passionate about our food and care greatly for the pupils and strive to provide the balance of nutrients they need and enjoy.
Food from Thought
Food provenance is extremely important to us. All of the milk we use at Kings Priory is from an award winning local organic dairy farm. The eggs we use are always Lion branded British free range. All of the meat we use is from British accredited farms and fish is responsibly sourced.
