Fernhill School

Fernhill School educates children from nursery level through to the completion of their secondary education. At Nursery and Primary levels, boys and girls are offered the best possible education in small class sizes. The Secondary Department continues to offer the highest possible standard of education but only for girls.

Examination results continue to reinforce how successful the school’s approaches are. As well as focusing on the critical area of attainment, the school offers a wide variety of opportunities for our pupils to achieve beyond the classroom. Pupils confidence and experiences are enriched as the school works with its parents to allow the young people to develop into successful, responsible citizens capable of moving on to fulfil their ambitions in the world beyond the Fernhill gates.

Fernhill is a Catholic independent school where daily life is centred on the values of the Gospel. Entirely within these values, all children are welcomed into and supported by the Fernhill school community.

Parents considering enrolling their children in the unique Fernhill community will be warmly welcomed to visit the school – and there is no better time than during the school day when excellence in action can be witnessed.
