Summary

The School’s consistent high performance in public examinations reflects the hard work and dedication of the girls towards their studies, and the excellent, individualised teaching offered by the school. Each girl has been enabled to maximise her own potential in an all-girl learning environment whilst at the same time benefiting from the wide-ranging extra curricular and enrichment activities on offer.

The School's results are above those to be expected from the tests given to them on entry.”
