St Margaret's School, Bushey

In its own words: "A modern school with a respect for its historic traditions, which is diverse and warm in character Our small class sizes and emphasis on pastoral support means we really know our pupils. Whatever your child’s interests and talents we will find them and encourage them to flourish. Our students' voice guides all that we do."

From the headteacher's welcome: "This is a school shaped not simply by what it offers, but by the people within it. We are a co-educational community where relationships matter, individuality is celebrated and children are encouraged to contribute to the life of the school, not simply pass through it."

The school runs after-school care until 4:00pm.

Coming up: an open day on Thursday 17 June 2027. Check the school's website before you go, as dates can change.

The Department for Education's GCSE measures do not count IGCSEs, which many independent schools take instead of GCSEs, so the Attainment 8 and English and maths figures it publishes for St Margaret's School can understate its results. We do not rank or compare them; ask the school for its own GCSE and IGCSE results.
