About

Sherborne Girls is an independent boarding school for girls aged 11 to 18. Founded in 1899, it is proud to be one of the leading, full-boarding girls’ schools for all-round personal development and academic fulfilment.

It offers a setting where academic focus is combined with the space to enjoy musical, creative, sporting and artistic pursuits, providing a wonderfully broad and enriching education that develops the unique talents of every girl within a supportive environment.

Located in the beautiful, historic market town of Sherborne, the school enjoys close links with the local community, as well as a close proximity and unique collaboration with Sherborne School, an all-boys full boarding school. This offers the best of both worlds: single-sex education alongside a wealth of joint co-curricular opportunities and social normality.

Sherborne Girls is proud to be linked with Hanford School, an all-girls prep school situated a short drive away. Hanford girls develop their academic and life skills in an idyllic countryside setting, where horse riding is a key activity.

Delivering consistently outstanding results, excellent pastoral care and facilities which have been enhanced with a stunning new performing arts centre, parents can be assured that their daughter will be welcomed into a friendly and compassionate, full-boarding environment where her individual strengths, talents and interests are nurtured.

Sherborne Girls aims to send into the world girls of character, commitment and compassion who think creatively, choose wisely and have the courage to make a difference.
