Discover the difference of an all-girls education at our award winning school. We are proud of our girls, our community, our heritage and our school. We aim to give our students a broad range of opportunities to flourish by ensuring they are nurtured, challenged and empowered to be the very best they can be.
We do this by providing a bespoke environment where girls are known as individuals and are confident to be themselves. The values which motivate Norwich High School for Girls and drive our behaviour are: Our girls are known and valued as individuals.
Our girls benefit from the fact that everything is designed and developed to meet their educational and pastoral needs, so they can be their very best whilst here at school and beyond. Our girls are intellectually curious, equipped to meet academic challenge and innovate. They benefit from the opportunities of our pioneering curriculum.
They become outstanding scholars, sportswomen, musicians, actors and are inspired to explore a wide range of pursuits. Our girls contribute to and benefit from the unique community fostered by staff and students. They positively support the lives of others in school and the wider community; they are outward looking and networked.
