largest girls' school in UK?

[sugarquill]

I can't find this info anywhere!

Can anyone help to provide any links?

Sorry, not sure

Headington School in Oxford has about 1000 girls so must be among the bigger ones, but is a private school

It's the independent schools I'm particularly interested in...Google is failing me!

Swanshurst in Birmingham I think.

Missed a vital word out of your thread title there huh?

Doh it's not independant, sorry!

Most girls' schools will be independent, so not really fussed.

Sandbach Girls HS is rather large, with a 6th form. State school though.

I believe Swanshurst in Birmingham is the largest girls' school in Europe, not just the UK. State school though so no good if you were looking for the largest independent girls' school.

Swanshurst in Birmingham has 1763 pupils - it's a state school though, not independent.

Ellen Wilkinson school for girls, Ealing, West London.
1454 on roll at time of 2014 ofstead inspection .
Comprehensive school.

Sugarquill - there are loads of girls' schools that aren't independent.

Tiffin girls' school? 150 pupils per year.

I'm surprised - single-sex comprehensives don't seem to get talked about much. I would have thought they'd be a lot more in demand since they offer one of the main things which parents want in a single-sex independent environment.

Maybe it depends where in the country you are.

Is Tiffin independent? I thought it was one of those strange super selective state schools.

Tiffins is, as mintyy says, a state grammar.

Ah, sorry.

Berkhampstead?

Junior, senior or both? Habs girls has,I think, around 1150 from 4-18

My daughter went to a state girls' school with over a thousand pupils. It's not unusual, to quote the Welsh fella.

Chichester High School for Girls - over 1200.

Millais, Horsham - over 1500 (no sixth form).

Both West Sussex.

Just to satisfy my curiosity, why do you want to know ??

there are girl's grammars in Cheltenham, Gloucester and Stroud. None of them the largest in the country though.

and 2 in Tunbridge/Tonbridge Wells

I'm wondering the same Back

Maybe one of the GDST schools?

what is GDST?
