St George's-Ascot

[EduCativ]

St George's, Ascot is an independent boarding and day school for girls aged 11 to 18 years. We are located approximately 25 miles west of central London on a beautiful, leafy 30-acre site, within walking distance of Ascot High Street. We are a welcoming school with a warm sense of community and visitors often comment on the perceptible supportive and cheerful atmosphere.
Most girls join St George's in their First Year (Year 7) there are around 35 girls in each of the first two years and we keep class sizes deliberately small so that each girl is individually known. An additional class is added at Third Year (Year 9) with girls joining from 13+ prep schools and girls may also join in the Sixth Form, and occasionally in Second Year (Year and Fourth Year (Year 10).
We believe that a happy and successful school is one where all pupils have the opportunities to develop their strengths. The richness of the opportunities within and outside the classroom are fundamental elements of St George’s experience. This allows the girls to foster the confidence, independence, and academic curiosity that lead to success.
Our academic results are impressive, with the 'value-added' in public examinations a real strength. We understand how girls learn effectively and we regularly add at least one grade higher at GCSE and A-Level than baseline testing would suggest. As the girls progress through school, bespoke advice on subject options, universities, and careers, as part of a thorough academic tracking process, gives each girl, and her parents, a sense of where her strengths lie and where she should be heading.
We also offer an extensive range of opportunities, clubs, and activities with a significant focus on the arts, music, and sport. The girls work hard and play hard, they value each other’s abilities, and there is a positive and supportive pastoral and boarding ethos.
St George’s is a place where girls flourish academically, creatively, physically, and morally, a place where risks can be taken, lessons are learned, and challenges are welcomed. We strive for the very best for our girls and by developing their love of learning, their academic potential, and their talents, we can nurture them to become happy, responsible, well-balanced, and resilient young women in the twenty-first century.
Please do come and visit us and meet our pupils and staff to see how an education at St George’s will make a difference to your daughter.
