Governor in The Guardian

Posted: 10th June 2021

An inspiring career.

Governor of St Augustine’s Priory, Mr Floyd Steadman, who so generously gives of his time to staff and girls, most recently in his training workshops on Unconscious Bias, has recently featured in an article in The Guardian.

The article, by Jeremy Inson from 4th June, focuses on Maro Itoje, Saracens and England rugby player, who speaks of Mr Steadman’s inspiration and encouragement when he was Maro Itoje’s headmaster.  It tells of Mr Steadman’s experiences and the racist abuse he suffered over his career and his commitment to promoting diversity in rugby.

This is an excellent article and can be found at:

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.
