Each year, a limited number of places are available for girls aged 11-16 to join Cheltenham Ladies’ College for 1–3 terms. Our Short Stay pupils are curious and eager to embrace new opportunities. They fully immerse themselves in College life, gaining a rewarding academic and cultural experience whilst adding to and enriching our community.
