From the Bournemouth School for Girls
Our school is dedicated to upholding the highest academic standards by providing students with a well-rounded education in a motivating setting. Additionally, we think that a person's overall moral, spiritual, and cultural development go hand in hand with academic brilliance. All of our kids have unique abilities that we want to help them develop so they can have an impact on the world. Although asking this question can sound odd, you should give it careful thought. More than 800 pupils in grades seven through eleven attend Bournemouth School for Girls. With slightly over 300 pupils, the sixth form is a crucial component of the school. The Sixth Form at Bournemouth School for Girls has a lot of possibilities to grow as leaders and engage with younger students in the school community. It is a highly active and dynamic atmosphere. This can be very fulfilling, but it also puts a lot of pressure on you to set a good example for the many young ladies who will look up to you. Although you are choosing to continue your education in the Sixth Form, there are certain requirements and expectations that come with being a student at a school rather than a college. These include attendance at registration and courses, no smoking, and how you dress.
