Welcome from the Head Girl

I started at Edgbaston High School in Year 7 and from the very beginning life here has always been extremely busy, which I think is part of the reason it's special. I'd say one of the most important things for me was getting involved and being as engaged with school life as possible.

Edgbaston High has a wonderful atmosphere of warmth and friendliness, with everyone always willing to try new things and be supportive of others. I've made some incredible friends in my time here, and this is another of the extremely valuable things to be gained from EHS; you can learn to work successfully with others in the environment around you and appreciate everyone's individual talents.

EHS has given me the chance to learn what I'm good at - and help me with what I'm not! The School understands the importance of fulfilment through learning and provides the support network necessary for this to be the case for every pupil. It produces happy and broad-minded girls who will often say that their years at EHS have been some of the best of their lives.
