Strong results. Individual progress.
71% of GCSE grades were awarded at grades 7–9 in 2026. But achievement at St Catherine’s is about more than grades alone. Our teachers combine high expectations with individual challenge and support, helping each girl make progress from her own starting point and achieve more than she might expect. See our GCSE results highlights.
Known well. Challenged personally.
At St Catherine’s, no girl should feel like just another face in the classroom. Small classes and close relationships mean teachers get to know each girl’s strengths, interests and potential. That understanding allows them to challenge and support her as an individual, building both achievement and confidence.
Confidence built through opportunity.
Confidence grows through experience. From sport, music and drama to creative subjects, trips, leadership and service, girls are encouraged to get involved, try something new and discover what they can do. They learn to take on challenges, develop their own voice and make a positive contribution.
A place to belong.
Rooted in our Catholic ethos, St Catherine’s is a welcoming community where girls are valued for who they are and encouraged to become all they can be. Friendships, kindness, responsibility and service are part of everyday school life. Here, girls can feel secure in themselves while developing the independence and confidence to embrace what comes next.
