- This independent school for girls aged 4-18 is proud of its “teach to 25” philosophy that runs throughout every aspect and stage of the girls’ education. The aim is to help them achieve not just excellent academic outcomes but meaningful long-term goals.
- Consistently ranked among the best independent schools in the UK, St Albans High School encourages its pupils to blaze their own trail, as seen in the wide range of subjects they go on to study at university.
- In September 2024, the school merged with Stormont School to form the St Albans Education Group, a developing cluster of strong, successful schools.
- In 2025, 72 per cent of the girls’ A-level grades were A*-A, and ten girls accepted places at Oxford or Cambridge.
- Candidates excelling in the entrance assessment are invited to the academic scholarship assessment day. Drama, music and sports scholarships are by application.
