Welcome

to St Margaret’s Bushey, an independent school for 420 girls aged 4 to 18.  As well as day places for all age groups we offer a range of flexible boarding options for both UK and international pupils from year 7 (age 11).

A warm welcome awaits everyone who comes to visit us here in Bushey.  We are proud of our vibrant, caring community of lively, intelligent girls and highly qualified, committed staff and of the excellent education which we offer.  If you have not been here before we invite you to visit in person so that we can show you round and share our enthusiasm for St Margaret’s with you face-to-face.

We hope to have captured in the pages of our website something of the academic rigour, the sense of achievement, the community spirit and the positive and supportive relationships which are fundamental to a St Margaret’s education. You will find lots of evidence of the wide range of activities which the girls enjoy and see their confident individuality and their concern for others.

Founded in 1749, St Margaret’s boasts a combination of historic buildings and modern facilities on a 74 acre site easily accessible from north-west London and adjacent counties, yet situated in a peaceful rural setting on the edge of Bushey in Hertfordshire where we are proud to serve the local community.
