Clarendon High School for Girls

Community lies at the very heart of Clarendon both intrinsically and extrinsically. Our girls strive to make a positive and lasting impact not only on the school itself but also on the broader community around them.

At a school level, many of our girls have taken it upon themselves to train as umpires, referees, adjudicators, and administrative officials in various disciplines.

Our academic achievers selflessly support their peers through a Peer Tutoring program, which although overseen by our Head of Academics, is conducted on a one-on-one basis entirely by the girls themselves. This ensures a highly effective academic support structure for learners who desire further academic support.
