Top of the Sunday Times' Small Independent School Tables for 2008/9 and 2009/10 2010 GCSE Results - Well done to all our girls. We are proud of you. 66% A* or A grades. 100% achieved 5 or more A* to C grades. Summer News: Mrs Keenlyside gave birth to a baby girl, Jessica, weighing 3.8kg on the 20th July Welcome to the St Margaret’s School website. St. Margaret’s is an independent school for girls between the ages of 4 and 16. There are 150 girls and 23 teachers in the St Margaret’s family. Our close-knit community is the secret of our success as a school. We will not make immeasurable promises about “helping girls to reach their potential” or “to give each girl lots of individual attention”, or even to “help her leave a confident and happy individual”. Every school should be aiming to do all three.
What should be immediately apparent to anyone visiting the school is this: small class sizes, a culture of learning, and an environment in which treating each other with respect and kindness is the norm, not an aim.  If you would like to read an independent review of the school from the current Good Schools' Guide, click here (We are very proud of the review, though contrary to the statistic at the bottom, the school is currently full). The school has become expert at teaching girls-only since 1884. Alongside their class teachers, girls from our Primary School are taught by specialist teachers in French, ICT and Music, and from Year 4 almost all lessons are taught by specialists. We are an all-in-one Junior and Senior School. We are located in the leafy, residential area of Hampstead, North London, in the Borough of Camden. If you are new to the school and are wondering if your daughter would benefit from joining our family, why not make an appointment to come and see us? In the meantime, you might also like to look us up in the Good School’s Guide. In addition you may wish to read our most 2007 inspection report. Though we were understandably pleased with our report, since its publication we have worked hard to make St Margaret’s an even better school by looking at what we could improve upon. This is the other secret of our success: never resting on our reputation but striving to do even better.
Mr M Webster
Principal Our Aims and Ethos: we are committed to providing a secure, caring and challenging learning environment in which girls are encouraged to strive for excellence in all that they do. Respect for others lies at the heart of the school community, within which the potential and talent of each individual can be recognised,nurtured and realised. At St Margaret's education is seen as a partnership between pupils, parents and teachers. Check out the new picture of the week in the news section.
