Woldingham is a greenhouse not a hothouse where every girl is known and nurtured. Supported by inspirational teaching and outstanding facilities, our empowered learning approach recognises students as individuals, inspires them to become independent thinkers, developing a passion for subjects where they achieve excellent public exam results to secure places at top universities and open doors to exciting careers.
Founded in 1842 by the Society of the Sacred Heart, Woldingham is proud to be a pioneer of women’s education. Our supportive and stimulating all-girls environment enables students to grow into independent women who will make a positive contribution to the world. Woldingham has a Catholic foundation, but we warmly welcome students of all faiths and none. The Sacred Heart goals of faith, community, intellect, social awareness and personal growth underpin everything we do, resulting in a forward-thinking and caring community, where girls flourish in and out of the classroom.
