The power of curiosity

We develop and nurture fearless individuals with curious minds.

At CLC, we provide educational experiences that are deliberately wide and expansive, encouraging and supporting pupils to explore opportunities and possibilities, to question as well as answer, to think as well as learn, and to develop the curiosity and confidence to choose their own path.

After CLC

Students go on to universities across the world, from top UK institutions and US Colleges, to Europe, Asia and Australia. On leaving CLC, our alumnae become members of Guild, a global network offering events, advice, careers support and opportunities.

Departments

The academic departments at CLC take pride in their excellent results, across more than 30 subjects, as well as the range of enriching lessons, activities, conferences, clubs and trips on offer.

World-Class Facilities

Mixing tradition and innovation, our facilities range from beautifully maintained 1800s buildings to our modern Health & Fitness Centre, Parabola Arts Centre, and our brand new Sixth Form Centre, set to open next academic year.

At CLC we know how important it is to feel happy and settled, especially when moving schools and perhaps boarding for the first time.

Years 7 and 8 make up our Lower College division, where students are encouraged to develop the confidence to fail as well as succeed, in a vibrant and fun environment where friendships and community thrive.

At CLC we don’t expect perfection, instead we develop and nurture potential.

Years 9 - 11 make up our Upper College division, where students are encouraged to develop independence, make informed choices, and nurture the self-belief to believe nothing is beyond their reach, as they head into their GCSE years.

At CLC, girls thrive in the classroom, and far beyond it and this is never truer than in Sixth Form.

CLC offers the perfect balance of a supportive environment where students are encouraged to choose their own path and begin developing a strong sense of independence, with pastoral care and a extensive wellbeing programme, to ensure they thrive emotionally and academically.

Scholars

Our Scholars play a key role in the life of College, with opportunities designed to challenge them to think critically.

Our tailored Scholarship Programme is designed to stretch and inspire our scholars, through enrichment and experiences beyond the curriculum, under the banner of Forum42.

This evening made me consider new possibilities for my future, as I never realised how much I enjoy things like this!”
