An education built for girls
In our small classes, each girl is valued, supported and inspired, as they experience an education tailored to meet their needs.
A St Mary’s education can be defined in many ways. It is the way we inspire a love of learning and the importance we place on happiness and pastoral care.
It is our strong community, which nurtures integrity, justice and respect as part of a moral and spiritual framework and our commitment to being responsible citizens. It is also our expertise in educating girls; in allowing their intellectual and social confidence to flourish, as well as the value we place on individuality.
It is about learning in different ways – including digital innovations and a wide range of creative, sporting and extra-curricular activities. It is about encouraging skills and attitudes to ensure our students are prepared for life.
