About Notting Hill and Ealing High School
NHEHS is a leading selective girls’ school which achieves outstanding results within an exceptionally warm and supportive community. We are one of the very first schools founded by the Girls' Day School Trust (GDST). The school opened in 1873 and was originally located in Norland Square, Notting Hill before moving to its current site in Ealing in the 1930s.
NHEHS has always had an outstanding reputation and been at the forefront of girls’ education. Its exceptional academic standards ensure that today it remains one of the UK’s leading independent girls' day schools.
Our location in Ealing, with its excellent transport links (underground, mainline, bus and road), means that our pupils come from all over West London and beyond.
We are well known for our success in balancing academic achievement against wide and enriching extra-curricular activities and underpinning everything with excellent pastoral care which puts the individual at the heart of everything we do. The result is girls who are academically successful, well-grounded, confident and independent. They are proud of their school and value kindness and laughter, fun and friendship. This is a place where tolerance and mutual respect are nurtured; where you can be yourself. With a wide variety of activities and opportunities, and a strong emphasis on charitable giving, everyone can enjoy being part of a vibrant community and express their passion for learning, and for life.
