Word From The Head

Burgess Hill Girls is an Excellent rated Independent school for girls aged 2 and a half to 18 years of age. Whatever the stage at which your daughter joins Burgess Hill Girls you can be confident of two things: that she will be known for who she is as an individual and she will be provided with an outstanding, transformative education of the whole person.

There is no glass ceiling at Burgess Hill Girls! Whilst the academic, technical, creative and emotional support is incredible, the breadth of opportunities and enrichment available is extensive. There is something for every member of the whole school community and if the girls desire more we have the ‘can do approach’ to make it happen!

Our school stands in 14 acres of beautiful grounds within a conservation area close to Burgess Hill’s town centre. All aspects of the school are located on this one campus; Nursery, Pre-Prep and Prep, Senior, Sixth Form and Boarding Houses. The school is only a five minute walk from the railway station (on the London to Brighton line) and close to excellent road networks (10 miles from Brighton city centre and only 20 minutes from Gatwick); the school is easily accessible for local and international students. We also provide a daily minibus service for girls across Sussex and beyond.

Our school motto, ‘I am, I can, I should, I will’, conveys and underpins our whole approach, identifying and releasing the potential of your daughter as she proceeds, giving her the very best possible opportunities to become a successful women of the future.
