St Mary’s is an independent day school offering co-education to girls and boys up to the age of seven years and thereafter specialising in the education of girls up to the age of eighteen years. St Mary’s is part of a large international foundation and has sister schools in almost every continent as well as on our doorstep in Reading. St Mary’s welcomes pupils from all Christian denominations and other religions, thus celebrating an inclusive school community

The large school site located in the attractive residential area of Battenhall is divided into three separate units, Early Years (3 months – 5 years), the Preparatory School (5 – 11 years) and the Senior School (11 – 18 Years). The school operates as a family community and there are, therefore, good links and continuity between all three areas.

The school is housed in an impressive Victorian mansion set in 15 acres of grounds. It has been painstakingly maintained and cleverly extended and equipped with the very best of modern technology. St Mary’s is a safe and secure oasis of tranquility in the city yet only minutes away from the convenience of the motorway network.
