Priestlands School is a mixed academy school in Pennington, Hampshire in southern England. The school serves an area that includes the villages of Hordle, Sway, Hampshire and South Baddesley, and the town of Lymington. Previously a specialist arts college, in August 2011 the school converted to academy status.[1] A 2008 Ofsted inspection assessed the school with Grade 1 (outstanding).[2]
