What the Reviews Say
We’re confident an EHS education equips girls with the academic qualifications, skills and personal qualities they need to excel in life beyond school. Our students achieve excellent exam results, but we believe the experiences we provide on the journey towards them are equally valuable.

Good Schools Guide - Senior School and Sixth Form
"A strong pastoral thread weaves seamlessly through every aspect of life at EHS. It draws together a rich tapestry of personal achievement in academia, sport, arts, extra-curricular, enrichment and friendship. An overwhelming sense that anything is possible, girls are imbued with confidence, ambition and a willingness to ‘give it a go’."
Good Schools Guide - Prep School and Pre-School
"Edgbaston Prep will bring out the best in your daughter,’ pronounced a parent. The balance of ‘robust academia with strong pastoral provision’ is its USP and a reason many choose it over more pressured establishments. ‘They let children develop in their own time and space with a supportive push and multiple opportunities to shine,' summed up one parent. You can’t ask for more than that."
Talk Education - Senior School and Sixth Form
"With a curriculum designed to support and develop talent, and a focus on fostering a genuine joy in learning, EHS does a great job balancing the academic necessities with the individual passions and needs of the students."
Talk Education - Prep School and Pre-School
"More specialist teaching is introduced as the girls move up the school, gently getting them used to having multiple teachers. Science is particularly well served – from Year 4, pupils have a specialist teacher teaching them in a fully equipped laboratory."
Muddy Stilettos - Senior and Sixth Form
"Edgbaston’s a good all-rounder with a well-earned reputation for academic success. It also has a huge co-curricular programme offering plenty of opportunity beyond the classroom."
Muddy Stilettos - Prep School and Pre-School
"Happy kids and parents here who all gave mention to the school being well run and the tight-knit community. Girls like the importance set on independent studying and that they are given roles throughout the school... Parents tell me they like that it’s nurturing and encouraging."
Muddy Stilettos Best Schools Awards 2022
We are delighted that EHS has been Highly Commended in two categories:

- Most Inventive Sports Programme: EHS Sports Evolution - How the pandemic and successive lockdowns provided a catalyst to the evolution of the EHS sports and PE provision.
