Welcome

Choosing the right school for your daughter is one of the most important decisions you will make as a parent. At Dame Alice, we work in partnership with you to ensure that your daughter is happy, successful and confident, building a foundation for her future personal and professional challenges. We will help your daughter to discover where her talents lie, and to make the most of them.

Dame Alice girls achieve success in a wide variety of areas and this success is recognised and celebrated. We are fully committed to single-sex eduction for girls. Years of experience have taught us that the single-sex environment, where the focus is firmly on girls and the way girls learn, yields impressive results at all levels, both within and beyond the classroom.

We hope that this website will give you a taste of what life at Dame Alice is like, but there is no substitute for a personal visit and you and your daughter are warmly invited to come and see our school for yourselves.

I look forward to meeting you.

Mrs Jill Berry
Headmistress
