Sixth Form student to shadow business leader

Posted: 10th June 2016

Developing commercial savvy

Sixth Form student and Head Girl, Erin Costello, has secured an exclusive opportunity to shadow local entrepreneur, leading businesswoman and St Augustine’s Priory parent, Charmaine Rothschild. Miss Costello will commence the experience at the Ealing-based commercial phone business, BusinessMobiles.com Ltd, on Monday 13th June 2016.

In addition to shadowing Mrs Rothschild, learning first-hand the day-to-day challenges of running a successful business, Miss Costello has undertaken psychometric testing so that her work experience may be tailored to her particular skillset.

Miss Costello comments: “I’m excited by the prospect of seeing in practice the Business and Economics theories students learn on their A Level courses. This is a unique opportunity to observe an accomplished businesswoman and great role model for me and my peers.”

This exciting opportunity comes shortly after Mrs Murphy ran an insight into industry day for students in Year 9, designed to test and showcase their entrepreneurial talents. To read more about this exciting day click here.

Strengthening Our Community: The Return of Boys to our Preps and Pre-Preps

We are excited to share that, from September 2026, boys will begin moving up from our Nursery into Reception, marking the gradual reintroduction of boys into our Prep and Pre-Prep School.

This step reflects growing interest from families who value our strong holistic ethos and unique grounds and setting and would like their sons and daughters to share their educational journey together.

At St Augustine’s, our strong sense of community, academic excellence, and deep care for each individual child remain at the heart of everything we do. This is a natural evolution of our school rather than a change to who we are, building on our strengths and allowing us to offer the same joyful, inspiring education to even more children.
