The Admission process

What sets EHS apart?

We nurture different types of intelligence, and help you to make the most of your strengths through a variety of opportunities.

We support you in achieving your potential, and take responsibility for yourself and others.

Recognise

We recognise the impact different ways of learning have on effective and enjoyable study, as you develop academically and personally.

Our Facilities

Your daughter's education at EHS is supported by superb academic facilities - from our modern classrooms and science labs to our ICT suites and libraries. We provide excellent facilities for a wide range of creative and sporting activities, whether they're part of the curriculum or enjoyed through our many clubs and societies.

The EHS Experience

We're confident an EHS education equips girls with the academic qualifications, skills and personal qualities they need to excel in life beyond school. Our students achieve excellent exam results, but we believe the experiences we provide on the journey towards them are equally valuable.

"Happy kids and parents here who all gave mention to the school being well run and the tight-knit community. Girls like the importance set on independent studying and that they are given roles throughout the school... Parents tell me they like that it’s nurturing and encouraging."
