Background
History
The school was originally named as Holywood High School in its foundation year in 1952. In 1997, the name of the school was changed to Priory Integrated College in order to appeal to all religions and to focus on integrated education after a consultation with parents also came to an agreement. The process of transformation began with funding provided by the Integrated Education Fund.
