“The belief that all pupils can develop the skills and confidence to become ‘influential women of the future’ is threaded through every aspect of school life. Staff and pupils share this ambition. Expectations are high. Pupils live the school’s values of respect, readiness to learn and resilience. Classrooms are places where pupils can be curious, questioning and unafraid to make mistakes. Pupils willingly work hard, do not give up and actively support each other so that everyone can flourish. .”
