Our aim is to achieve high academic achievement coupled with a student centered approach.  Each student is valued and encouraged to reach her full potential.  The friendly and warm atmosphere is noticeable as soon as one enters the building and is further enhanced by the pleasant surroundings - including gardens, a pond, picnic tables and an aviary.   Many of our students are daughters of past pupils and we currently have five past pupils on the teaching staff.  We also have a tradition of encouraging the enrolment of International students.  We have always had a non discriminatory admission policy and emphasis on social inclusion.
