Personnel
All the teaching staff are committed
and well-qualified with university degrees in their specialist
subjects. In most curriculum areas girls will be taught
throughout their senior school years by staff who are also
teaching at A Level.
In the Junior Department the younger
pupils spend most of their time with their class teacher,
but as they get older more specialist teaching is introduced
and by Year 6 they are taught some subjects by senior staff.
