Welcome to say we have a truly special community at Blackheath High School does not do justice to our students, staff, parents, and all who contribute to making our school the lively, inspirational hub that it is.
As you walk through the doors and enter our incredibly light, open and invigorating space, you cannot help being swept up by our ethos of Learning Without Limits and feel the presence of the pioneering Girls Day School Trust. Every day I look forward to walking into the building and leave feeling proud of our girls and what they achieve; every single day, without fail.
Our mission is to inspire our students to have confidence in their own academic pursuits, however diverse. Our interactive teaching style, collaborative environment and state-of-the-art facilities create a space where students can experiment with their interests and truly find their passions in life.
We were also recently shortlisted for Independent Girls' School of the Year, in recognition of our commitment to creating an education and an environment designed for girls . Find out more about the prestigious awards programme .
