    What it’s like

    Founded in 1850 by Miss Frances Buss, the first woman to use the title ‘headmistress’. In 1929 it bought Canons, the former home of the Duke of Chandos, a magnificent 18th-century house with fine terraces and gardens, which is now the heart of the school for the sixth form. A modern school was added in the 30 acres of parkland, including a theatre, library, sports hall, indoor swimming pool and music and drawing schools – its facilities are very good. Strongly traditional, it is an energetic, purposeful school. Academic standards are very high and the examination results obtained are outstanding. A very high proportion of sixth formers goes on to Oxbridge. The International Baccalaureate is now being offered in the sixth form, alongside traditional AS and A-levels courses. The school has a strong musical tradition (300 girls learn an instrument), and many opportunities for drama. A range of sports, games and extra-curricular activities, including the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Scheme.
