Everything we do at Royal High Bath is designed for girls, from Nursery through to Sixth Form. We are specialists in girls’ education and we tailor our teaching to the way girls learn best.
We are proud to be part of the Girls’ Day School Trust (GDST), a unique family of 25 all-girls schools. A pioneering movement founded over 150 years ago, GDST schools remain leaders in girls’ education to this day. GDST research is consistently updated, enabling our school to react to a changing world and provide excellence in modern education and pastoral care for girls.
There is strong evidence that girls-only education leads to higher academic achievement. All-girls schools allow teachers to focus more effectively on the needs of individual girls, so their needs and preferences can be fully accommodated within a dedicated learning environment. Evidence shows that girls achieve more when they are given their own dedicated space in which to develop.
All-girls schools provide a supportive and empowering environment where girls can be themselves and embrace their unique qualities. Students feel confident to take charge and put themselves forward. With only girls in the classroom and on the sports field, both intellectual and physical confidence can grow. At Royal High Bath, girls are encouraged and supported to take risks, express themselves, and believe in their abilities within an affirming environment.
With the support in place at Royal High Bath that is required for girls to thrive, students perform well academically and consistently achieve excellent grades. This summer, an impressive 48% of A Level results were top A*/A grades and 10 A level students gained all their results at this high level. Our GCSE pupils also achieved exceptional results with 91% of students achieving grades 5-9.
These pupils will now go on to study A Levels or the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB) at Sixth Form.
Royal High Bath is the only school in Bath to offer IB which is a highly regarded educational programme that allows students to take a selection of subjects across six disciplines and where there is a greater focus on coursework and a wider variety of forms of assessment than in the A Level programme.
