School Letters












   

Welcome to the Streatham and Clapham High School GDST website.

I am delighted to be able to introduce our school to you and hope that what you see will encourage you and your daughter to visit us and eventually join us.

Choosing a school is a crucial decision, whatever age your daughter may be. I believe it is our duty and responsibility to bring out the best in your daughter, be it her first steps in reading and writing, performing in the school play or taking her A Levels. I firmly believe that to get the best out of our girls we have to encourage, rather than pressurise and only then will they flourish. Every girl has her own particular skills and talents: we aim to develop the ones she knows she has and help her find new ones.

We are a positive school where girls and staff have an enthusiasm for whatever it is they're doing, from the academic, to sport, to the performing arts. Our staff enjoy teaching, our pupils enjoy learning and I believe that this is the key to a happy successful school.

A website can only give you a flavour of our school and so please do arrange a visit by calling our Admissions Secretary Mrs Warner on 0208 677 8400. I look forward to welcoming you soon.

Sue Mitchell
Head
