Welcome, and thank you for your
interest in Leicester High.
Choosing the right school for your daughter
is exciting, important and maybe a little
daunting. When to visit? What to ask?
How to compare schools? Let me help by
being clear about this from the start: you
can visit us at any time and as many times
as you like – we encourage you to ask us
about anything and everything. You know
your daughter better than anyone else
and when you discover the best ‘fit’, you
will know.
I am, of course, bound to say that our
School is very special indeed. Schools are
as diverse as the pupils in them, so what
is different about us? We are a caring and
focused community; we are academic, but
not an exam factory; we offer incredible
opportunities through the breadth of clubs
and trips; and, most importantly, through
our experience of educating girls, we know
how to give them the foundations to go on
and flourish.
When you visit us, you will be shown
around the School by Sixth Form girls who,
reaching the end of their journey with us,
will tell you what has made Leicester High
special for them.
I look forward to meeting you soon.
