Royal High School Bath

About the School

We are a leading independent day and boarding school for girls aged 3-18. We have a long history of specialising in girls' only education, and are proud to be a part of the GDST.

Our girls grow. They grow in self-confidence as we support them in uncovering their talents and pursuing their passions. Girls at Royal High Bath are driven, they make waves in the world and reach new heights. Join our family today.

Leaders in education for girls

We are proud to be part of the Girls' Day School Trust, the leading network of 26 girls' schools, 24 independent schools, two academies and over 100,000 alumnae. In all GDST schools, academic excellence is a given – at the GDST we develop character beyond the curriculum.

We focus not only on what is learned but how it is learned. Ensuring our girls are confident and fearless, determined to show what they can do. Nothing holds our girls back – they’re encouraged to embrace every role and subject. As a result, they trust their own abilities and are alive to every opportunity. This is the GDST Difference.

We concentrate on creating an environment where all can thrive and learn from one another. Physical and emotional wellbeing is paramount, which is why every GDST school provides an incredible array of extra-curricular activities and pastoral and wellbeing programmes.

The GDST was founded 150 years ago by a group of pioneering women who believed that girls should be entitled to the same academic education as their brothers. The principles of breadth, fearlessness, inclusiveness and a focus on developing the individual to achieve her potential were all enshrined from the GDST’s early beginnings, and remain true of the GDST family of schools today.
