Grovesnor Girls High School

At Grosvenor Girls High we are passionate about, and experts in, girls’ education. We encourage our girls to grow intellectually, think independently and become responsible, confident young women.

We pride ourselves in ensuring that superb pastoral care and core values sit alongside our excellent teaching. This offers a well-rounded education in an environment with the space to inspire, challenge, encourage and support every girl to develop her full potential to become the amazing person she can be.

We are an independent Girls school welcoming girls aged 3 to 18. Come and see for yourself what makes this girls' school different and meet our Headmistress, staff and girls who call it home.

It is the vision of this school to serve as a centre of educational excellence in our community and in the region south of the city. It is the duty of this school to provide education of the highest quality so that every girl develops her unique potential to become a young woman able to meet the demands of the new South Africa. This school aims to create a harmonious, safe and disciplined environment in which the core values of the school can be lived and the performance relationships between the learners and the staff are promoted so that the mission of the school can be achieved.

Through a democratic process of work-shopping and consultation with all the shareholders of our school – learners, parents and teachers – we have adopted eight shared core values, a code of conduct, codes of behaviours, school rules, regulations and procedures to ensure the safety of our girls and to maintain an effective organisation and good discipline in our school.

Our mission is to be a dynamic, community-based school, serving as a centre of educational excellence in our region. As professionals, we are committed to providing an all- round education of the highest quality. We strive to develop a foundation of skills, knowledge, and self-reliance through a learner-centred focus in our teaching. We all strive to value and promote mutual respect, communication, democratic principles and firm discipline. We nurture these values as well as unity in diversity and pride through our strong family ethos, unique school culture and a harmonious learning environment. Our aim is to encourage each girl to extend her potential to become a confident woman able to meet the demands of her society.
