Founded at Liège in 1642 and run by the English Canonesses of the Holy Sepulchre. When the nuns were compelled to leave during the French Revolution, it was reopened at its present site in 1799. England's oldest Catholic girls' school, now with a lay headmistress, it welcomes all pupils in sympathy with its ethos. Magnificent buildings provide excellent facilities. The main building is a Tudor palace (built by Henry VIII for Anne Boleyn and once the home of Mary Tudor), set in a beautiful 120-acre estate with excellent playing fields and sporting amenities. Its co-educational prep school is on the same site. Academically selective, standards are high and examination results consistently good. There is a massive commitment to music. It is very strong in drama and dance (many productions) and art (sixth-form students exhibit their work locally). A wide range of sport and games and high standards are attained. A variety of activities caters for most needs: voluntary service activities have gained national awards; there is an impressive record in the Duke of Edinburgh's Award Scheme. Justice and peace issues are important to the school's ethos.
