Hello and welcome to Wakefield Girls’ High School. For everyone at the school, our central focus has always been about happily empowering our students to be everything they want to be.

Along with the academic excellence the school is renowned for, we pride ourselves on providing an inspiring, supportive and positive environment which gives each student the skills and confidence she needs to succeed in learning and life. All our students have the freedom to express themselves individually and collectively, explore what excites them and experience new interests, independence and friendships which will take them way beyond the classroom. At the heart of what we do is a desire to build a school of innovative free thinkers, informed by a true feeling of social responsibility, a sense of togetherness and a growing awareness of the world around them. Throughout their school journey, we provide students with every opportunity to achieve the extraordinary by nurturing the joy of learning and preparing them for a future without limits.
