Founded in 1875, Haberdashers’ Girls’ School, Elstree is a leading independent day school for girls aged 4–18. The School’s academic results place it amongst the highest-ranked schools in the UK.
It provides a challenging, positive, stimulating and secure community in which students enjoy working hard to fulfil their potential. The co-location of the School with Haberdashers’ Boys’ School provides the best of both worlds: an excellent single-sex education within a co- educational environment.
The School traces its roots back to the 17th century when its founder, Robert Aske, established the principles that guide it to this day – to give talented and ambitious young people the opportunities they need to succeed in life. Its priority is the education of the whole person, amongst other bright, well- motivated students, taught by a highly qualified, committed staff. In partnership with parents, it aims to provide every student with the intellectual, cultural, physical, moral, personal and spiritual resources she needs to give her confidence to go forward in a changing world.
The School is a diverse community which nurtures a global perspective and a deep sense of responsibility for the world in which its pupils will lead and succeed. Its excellent pastoral care, broad academic curriculum and far-reaching co-curricular provision prepare students for success, wherever their passion may take them.
Today the School educates approximately 1,250 girls from the age of 4 to 18, including 320 in the Junior School and 220 in the Sixth Form. Admission to the School is by competitive selective assessment, and students enter at 4+, 7+, 11+ and 16+.
On its most recent visit in March 2022, the Independent Schools Inspectorate rated the School “Excellent” in all areas.
