Year 9 UK Day

Fearless Futures Start Here

Join as a Year 9 Day Student

Joining in Year 9 is a time to look forward, to explore ideas more deeply, make choices and start shaping your own path.

Our students grow in independence and confidence, supported by a community that values curiosity, courage and compassion. They are encouraged to think differently, contribute ideas and take ownership of their learning.

Inside the classroom and outside of it, they begin to discover what excites them and where their strengths lie.

Fearless futures start with choosing your own path.

Why CLC?

The world needs more than just good grades.

It needs inquisitive minds, brave hearts and strong values. At Cheltenham Ladies’ College, we are here to nurture fearless individuals, ready to take on the future with curiosity, courage and compassion.

That's why we empower whilst we educate. We develop mindsets alongside skillsets. We teach students to think, as well as learn. To question, not just answer.

To succeed, whilst learning to fail. Working in communities, not just classrooms.

We help every student experience the joy of learning, find the confidence to step into the world and dare to make a difference.
