- This independent day school for girls is steeped in almost 150 years of history but is housed in a modern, purpose-built building on a 27-acre campus. The school aims to instil a philosophy of being “10 per cent braver in all endeavours” to ensure girls become fearless learners and “emerge as a leader of tomorrow”.
- The school operates a dedicated local and regional transport programme for pupils, serving 170 stops. It also includes a late service Monday to Thursday to ensure a safe return journey for students attending after-school clubs and activities. The strong house peer system allows older girls to mentor younger pupils as they find their feet.
- The Girls’ Day School Trust bursary fund supports talented girls who would find a place at Northampton life-changing through its scholars’ programme, providing both personal and financial support.
- Old girls include the author Anne Fine.
