St Margaret's Hampstead

We are preparing for life

A taste of St Margaret's

Welcome to St Margaret's

An Independent School for Girls between the ages of 4 and 16

There are 170 girls and 25 teachers in the St Margaret’s family. Like most schools, we want our girls to be happy, well-rounded and confident, and for them to do their very best academically. At St Margaret's, we reach these goals by engaging with each girl on a very personal level, which is something you can do when you have small classes, low teacher turnover and a culture of involvement.

We are delighted to announce that we are Number 1  in the Sunday Times League Tables for schools without a sixth form, 2023 .

Meet the students

Where every girl stands out

Here it is not only the tallest, most athletic girls who represent the school at netball, or the most extrovert who get the speaking roles in plays. Everyone is valued, and we encourage and celebrate excellence and enthusiasm in equally high measure. Every girl is involved in the life and experiences that the school has to offer.

Taught by experts

We recruit and retain the very best teachers in order to ensure that the teaching and learning throughout the school are exceptional. Staff turnover is very low. We also focus closely on the staff's understanding of the importance of pastoral care in fostering a harmonious community.

Practical & prepared

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.
