Manchester High School for Girls

Manchester High School for Girls MHSG is a leading independent girls' day school in South Manchester, for ages 3 to 18.

Manchester High School for Girls was founded in 1874 “To impart to the girls the very best education which can be given and to fit them for any future which may be before them”. Today, the School upholds these founding principles by encouraging each individual pupil to achieve educational excellence across a broad range of learning opportunities, both inside and outside the classroom. For each pup

il, this all-round education fosters an awareness of their own value and a sense of responsibility towards others, both within our community and across the wider world.

Our Head Mistress, Mrs Helen Jeys, joined BBC Three Counties Radio this morning to discuss the importance of girls’ education, and why all-girls schools continue to play a vital role in empowering young women.

Helen shares her thoughts on the unique opportunities an all-girls education can provide.
