As I say I don’t know much about the teaching staff now - when I was there it was still very much a convent school, although with many girls of different/no faith there.
Most of all I loved the building. It’s incredibly beautiful and I loved being there every day. It felt a real privilege.
The ethos is about educating the whole person, so beyond academics - there was a big emphasis on kindness, doing things for other people, charitable activity etc.
The art, music, drama and sports facilities were all good when I was there but I gather are better now with a new sports centre.
The best bit was sixth form where you could wear your own clothes and had the “flats” - your own study that you share with a friend.
I had a very happy time at school, wasn’t aware of any bullying in my year (although teenage girls can obviously be pretty hideous). I still have dreams about walking around the grounds!
