Withington Girls’ School

Withington is a leading independent day school for girls aged 7 to 18 in which some of the best academic results in the country are attained within a lively, happy and caring environment. Our outstanding record of achievement is complemented by an extensive range of extracurricular opportunities.

Headmistress’s Welcome

Welcome to our website which is designed to introduce you to our remarkable Withington community and to encourage you to visit us in person and learn more at first hand.

It is our aim that girls should leave Withington at ease with themselves and ready to face with confidence the challenges of university life and beyond.
