Welcome to Wallington High School for Girls.

We are very proud to be one of the top girls school in the country. We are happy, purposeful & vibrant school community with a reputation for high academic standards, first class pastoral care and an outstanding extra-curricular and enrichment programme.

Our students are at the centre of everything that we do here. We want our them to thrive, enjoy their learning and achieve first class qualifications alongside developing as confident, caring and articulate individuals, well prepared for their future lives and leave empowered to achieve their aspirations. This ambition is reflected in our school motto "Heirs of the Past, Makers of the Future" and underpinned by our three core values: curiosity, courage and compassion.

We aim to offer a broad and balanced curriculum where traditional methods co-exist with innovative teaching and learning that embraces the very latest technologies and research. Our curriculum is enriched by a vast array of activities, including trips, competitions, lectures, and work-related learning. This, combined with the fact that classes are taught by passionate subject specialists, enables us to achieve academic results that are among the very best nationally.

We pride ourselves on offering a wide range of opportunities and responsibilities enabling our students to develop leadership skills, new skills and interests as well as a sense of service. There is a wide range of extra-curricular and enrichment activities on offer at lunchtime and after school, many of which are student led and everyone is encouraged to make the most of these opportunities and play a role in the wider life of the school.

Our strong pastoral system means that students are nurtured and supported every step of the way through their time at the school. Care is an important part of our ethos and ensures we provide an environment where our students feel happy, safe and a strong sense of belonging, and can therefore flourish.

Welcome to the Girls’ Learning Trust. We were formed in September 2015 and currently consist of three high-performing girls’ schools: Nonsuch High School for Girls, Wallington High School for Girls and Carshalton High School for Girls. All three schools are located in the London Borough of Sutton.

As the largest all-girls multi academy trust in the UK, we have over 4,500 students aged 11-18 and almost 500 staff. We have a financial turnover of £30m and operate over three large sites.

Our aim is to empower girls and young women by delivering a first-class education and providing an inspirational start to their futures.

Our philosophy enables each school and our shared services to develop their own identity and vision, which also means each has its own distinct set of values and culture. But there are some common features to working in any role with us:

• A passionate and dedicated staff team who believe in the transformative power of education, and take pride in the positive impact their roles have both inside and outside of the classroom.
• A team of problem solvers who constantly figure out ways to help pupils achieve better outcomes, tackling challenges both big and small together.
• A fun and empathetic environment: staff who support and take care of each other, bringing a sense of humour to the workplace.
• A commitment to professional development: we are proud of our culture of promoting GLT staff within and across our trust and have an excellent record of developing outstanding staff and preparing them for senior leadership.
• A commitment to safeguarding and wellbeing: we operate a rigorous recruitment procedure that includes DBS, medical screening and confirmation of qualifications. And we are committed to ensuring this remains our top priority.
