We offer all the advantages of a superb single-sex education, plus all the benefits of a happy community and a fabulous co-educational campus.
Our academic results place us among the very highest performing schools in the UK.
Every day, we welcome around 800 senior day students aged 11-18. From Year 7 to Year 11, there are typically five classes in each year.
Students join our Senior School at 11+ (Year 7) or through an occasional place in another year group. They can then progress to our Sixth Form.
We award scholarships to students who excel in our admission tests and interviews. We also provide bursaries for families who would not otherwise be able to send their child to Habs Girls
Academic learning is important, but there is so much more to life. We know we are preparing our students for lives and careers that will demand a strong moral compass, resilience, empathy, the ability to create solutions and to lead.
We do this by celebrating our values, charity support, assembly programme, form time and personal, social, health education (PSHE). We stress the importance of mental and physical health and wellbeing, with a strong pastoral care programme in place.
As they progress through the year groups, all students are prepared for life beyond school. They get ready for Sixth Form, head for university and their future careers. We offer a broad programme of co-curricular activities, helping them become fully-rounded people with diverse interests and skills. We also believe in personal responsibility and learning from our mistakes.
We are proud of the wide range of cultures, backgrounds and beliefs our students represent. It forms a valuable preparation for life and work in a diverse, globalised world.
We help our students to know, understand and be themselves. We celebrate the contribution of everyone, across all races, genders, gender identities, sexual orientations, religious beliefs, cultures, social strata and disabilities.
We also work closely with Habs Boys, creating opportunities for friendship and learning in a familiar, safe and supportive setting.

As part of our pastoral care, we make sure there is plenty of time for your child to interact with their tutor. Starting lessons from 9.15am, we also have an extended lunchtime so that students can take a break and enjoy a nutritious meal.
Most students travel to and from school using our extensive coach service, run jointly with Habs Boys. We also run a late coach service to many areas following after-school activities.
Our students are encouraged to get involved in the huge range of activities outside the classroom. There are opportunities to join clubs and activities, to do Duke of Edinburgh awards, to go on trips, plus get involved in sport and performance music and drama.
Certain times of the week are dedicated to particular activities:
The hallmark of a Habs student is to look ahead, not behind. We help to prepare students for the future, whether preparing for Sixth Form, university or their career.
