e have been empowering girls at St Mary’s for over 120 years. By providing girls a space in which their intellectual and social confidence can flourish, we empower girls to aim high, follow their dreams and to make a positive contribution to society. Statistics show that girls in single-sex schools achieve higher academic results, compared to their co-ed peers. We believe the benefits are much broader. As members of the Girls’ Schools Association (GSA), we offer an approach that empowers girls to pursue their unique path, free from gender stereotypes. Studies show that girls in GSA schools are more likely to choose ‘more challenging’ STEM subjects: WHY ST MARY’S? At St Mary’s, our girls love learning. Whatever your child’s interests – from sport, drama and LAMDA qualifications, to coding, music or learning a language, our co- and extra- curricular activities are full of inspiration. We provide academic knowledge and practical skills, coupled with wisdom and values that will support your daughter on life’s journey and enable her to thrive in her chosen fields. BEING HAPPY For us, your daughter’s happiness is as important as her academic attainment. We believe results and happiness are inseparable: young people thrive and achieve more when they are happy at school. In small classes, she will benefit from personalised support and teaching, tailored to how she learns most effectively. Alongside this, our highly regarded pastoral care and tutoring will support her social and emotional development.
