Senior School pupils enjoy access to an excellent range of facilities to support their learning.
These include dedicated science labs, two digital language labs and specialist facilities for Art, Design and Technology, Drama, ICT and Music.
Our library provides a well-resourced centre for independent study and research with study space for approximately 70 students and access to a computer suite as well as a bank of laptops that girls can borrow for independent study, staffed by a full-time librarian and two assistants. The varying needs of our students are supported through a wide range of resources including a book stock covering all areas of the curriculum, periodicals, newspapers, audio books, DVDs and videos. Guides to using the internet and appropriate websites are also available. There is a well-stocked fiction section which is divided into areas suitable for younger and older readers and plenty of guidance is given to assist girls with making reading choices.
We have excellent sports facilities and our Sports Centre is a busy and thriving focal point of the school, housing a 25 metre six-lane swimming pool, fully equipped fitness suite, sports hall and dance studio. The Centre is used by the girls throughout the day for their curriculum lessons and after school for extra-curricular activities, team practices or recreational use. Sixth Form students are able to use the fitness suite in their free time. We also have two lacrosse pitches, which during the summer term are converted to an athletics track and three rounders pitches. There are six tennis courts and, during the winter, five netball courts, along with a senior gymnasium and squash court.
