Notre Dame High School

Thank you for your interest in Notre Dame High School. We offer you the opportunity to study in a vibrant, friendly and highly successful school with strong Christian values and outstanding teaching and learning at the heart of everything we do. Notre Dame is a warm and welcoming community with students joining us from around 35 different secondary schools each year. We are a comprehensive and inclusive Sixth Form and welcome students from all backgrounds. Our Sixth Form draws on a tradition of excellence in education, first established in 1855 by the sisters of Notre Dame. We offer a wide range of subjects for study at AS and A2 taught by well qualified and experienced teachers who are deeply committed to helping you meet the demands of your studies. With an emphasis on supportive pastoral care, you will be part of a form group with daily contact from your personal tutor to help ensure you make the best of your time with us. We are so very proud of all that our students achieve, each year many of them go on to secure places on the most competitive courses at some of the country’s highest regarded universities. It's important to us that when you leave our Sixth Form you do so with more than 'just a set of grades'. At Notre Dame there are tremendous opportunities for personal and spiritual development. You are given the chance to take on responsibilities and participate in activities which will develop you personally and allow you to respond to the needs of the wider community. For example, through support work in local primary schools, the Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme, residential weekends, paired reading schemes and by working with staff to run whole school events such as our Summer Festival, Sports Day and other volunteer lead activities; we hope to offer you a rewarding experience beyond the classroom. Notre Dame is wonderful place to continue your education beyond year 11, I hope that you take the next step in deciding to become a part of our Sixth Form community, with best wishes for your GCSE exams this year.
