An outstanding British education

For over 170 years, CLC has strived to be at the forefront of girls education. Today, we are the UK's Top Girls' Boarding School for IB and are The Sunday Times Best Independent School for academic excellence in the South West of England.

We are renowned for our commitment to excellence and our students consistently achieve outstanding academic results, progressing to world-leading universities such as Oxford, Cambridge, Ivy League colleges and top Russell Group institutions.

A holistic approach

At Cheltenham Ladies’ College, we believe education is about far more than examination results. We take a holistic approach, combining academic learning with a wide range of co-curricular opportunities - from over 160 clubs and societies to sport, music, art and drama.

"CLC really cares about sport, and about work-life balance."

A Nurturing Boarding Experience

Our full-boarding model is ideal for international students. Girls live in welcoming, friendly houses run by experienced Houseparents, with 24/7 pastoral support from our Medical Centre team, College Chaplain and dedicated Tutors.

At weekends, there is plenty to do from in-house craft and baking activities, or simply relaxing with friends, to our wide-ranging Weekend Programme of cultural trips, outdoor adventures and social events. Our vibrant school community helps girls from Kenya settle in quickly and feel at home from the very start.
