St Albans High School for Girls

STAHS prep used to be such an amazing school but it is going downhill rapidly. A number of senior staff have recently resigned due to ongoing issues with the head of school Ms Amber Waite. Staff morale is really poor and teachers feel under tremendous pressure. Bullying is rife at the senior school and pastoral care almost non-existent. For example STAHS is the only school I know of that refuses to ban mobile phones. In light of an 18% January 2025 fee increase, demotivated teachers and pupils, bullying and to cap it all cut backs at the school….if you can stomach all that and decide to send your daughter don’t expect to get into a top university as easily as from the state sector! I really do not recommend this school!!!!
