Admissions

At Bridgewater, academic accomplishment begins with creating the right atmosphere and a more joined up approach to academic growth and development.

Right from the start, we set out to identify and recognise your child’s individual potential. Which is why so many of our young people not only go on to make so much of their lives, but also discover more about who they are and who they can be.

We are:
• A school of inspiration
• A school that values individuality and family values
• A school where each child is known by name, not a number
• A school withconsistently excellent pass rates at GCSE and A-level
• A school with exceptional pastoral care and fabulous learning support
• A school with a plethora of extra-curricular opportunities and activities
• A school with experienced, wonderfully committed teachers
• A school where individuality counts

Arrange a school visit today. We can personally recommend it.

The school governors, staff and pupils all share a real sense of excitement about both our recent accomplishments and Bridgewater’s future. The Headmistress and staff would be delighted to meet you and show you all of the highly individual features which set the school apart and make it perfect location for your child’s future.
