About Queen Mary's High School

Welcome from Mrs N Daniel | Headteacher

I am extremely proud to welcome you to Queen Mary's High School.

Queen Mary's High School is built upon a well established history of success, shaping exceptional young women for young adulthood. We are one of the top performing state schools in the country, consistently maintaining a high position nationally for GCSE and A Level outcomes. We were inspected by Ofsted in October 2021 and are proud to have been judged as Outstanding in all aspects of our provision..

Today, there are more opportunities for young women to succeed in society than there have ever been before and we firmly believe that there is no limit to the personal, social and academic achievement that is possible for each and every one of our students.

Queen Mary’s High School is an 11-18 selective grammar school which admits girls in Years 7-11 and is co-educational in the Sixth Form provision.

We are a school built upon a well-established history of success. We have been shaping exceptional young people for adulthood for over 125 years and our consistently excellent outcomes at GCSE and A Level speak for themselves.

Queen Mary’s High School is a place where students flourish academically and socially in a vibrant, diverse and inclusive community. Our students are at the heart of all that we do as a school and all members of our community are resolute in their commitment to ensuring that when our students leave us they do so with academic success, the skills and personal attributes to embrace the challenges and opportunities of life beyond QMHS.

Whilst academic achievement is a key part of our school culture, we understand that there is far more to school life that the learning that takes place within the classroom. Students at Queen Mary’s High School benefit from and enjoy a wide range of extra-curricular opportunities to complement their academic development.

Queen Mary's High School we are a school community passionate about learning and cultivating an exceptional educational environment in which our young people are enabled to be the very best version of themselves. We have a dedicated and expert body of staff who are committed to ensuring that students are supported to achieve of their very best. Support, care, and guidance for each young person is at our core and the Queen Mary’s High School values of responsibility, honesty, integrity, respect and tolerance underpin all that we as a school community stand for. We ask that parents help us in supporting their child in demonstrating these values each day, in school, at home and online. Only through working together in partnership will we ensure that we are all, together, incredibly proud of their achievements, progress and growth.

The school’s reputation, culture and family atmosphere are such that all who are connected with it continue an association with Queen Mary’s High School long after their time with us. Students who have studied at Queen Mary’s High School leave to pursue a variety of degree courses at some of the best institutions in the country alongside securing higher level apprenticeships at prestigious companies. More importantly they leave our school with the skills and personal attributes that equip them to face the challenges of life beyond QMHS and make a positive contribution to the world around them.
