Success at Ellesmere is founded upon high quality classroom education coupled with a strong commitment to extra-curricular activities, be they artistic, sporting or outdoor pursuits. We at this top boarding school focus on each of the student individually and we take care of their personal and individual needs. For us everyone is important and it does not matter if someone is a perfect students or just an average one.

We aim to provide subjects that appeal to all pupils’ interests and academic strengths, while keeping class sizes small. Ranked in the top 20 British schools offering the International Baccalaureate (IB), over 60% of all A-Level grades awarded were A*- B with the girls raising that bar to nearly 70% of their grades published being A*AB.
