At Brigidine we offer outstanding education for young people today. Students have the opportunity to shine and develop their potential by achieving, combining best academic results for each individual with personal growth of character.
Brigidine was founded 60 years ago by The Brigidine Sisters, known world-wide for their passionate belief in the fair and just status of women and their ability to make a positive difference. As a School we are responsive and supportive and able to provide children with an excellent broad and balanced education from the age of 2 years for boys and girls, continuing to 18 years for girls.
As part of the GSA (Girls' School Association) we specialise in girls' education for students over the age of 7. Current research on both sides of the Atlantic is proving how girls flourish in single sex education enabling the best possible results to be achieved.
At Brigidine we personalise the curriculum for individual students. This emphasis on the individual allows students to achieve enormous Value Added in their public examinations. In the June 2008 examinations, many students achieved 2 grades higher than had been predicted by National Baseline Assessments. Our intake of students is comprehensive; our pupils range from Oxbridge scholars to those who need a little more nurturing and support. Our aim is to enable all students to achieve at least 5 A* to C grades at GCSE and many achieve a majority of A*s and A grades.
Along with the academic work we offer an extensive extra-curricular programme ranging from music, sports, drama and dance, to name but a few. We also offer before and after school provision.
We currently operate a bus service from Hillingdon and The Chalfonts and we have plans to extend the routes to Staines, Wokingham, Bracknell and Ascot.
Our pupils have self-confidence and a self-belief that prepares them for their life ahead. We give students the skills to adapt to our ever changing world. At Brigidine School Windsor we will provide children with the fortitude and skills to make their mark on the world.
