Badminton School

Badminton is a thriving day and boarding school for girls aged 3-18, which has remained at the forefront of girls’ education in the UK for well over 160 years. Based on the outskirts of Bristol in the Southwest of England, the size of the campus and community gives a homely and vibrant feel to the school. This, coupled with our excellent pastoral care, leaves no scope for anonymity, but rather lends itself to strong mutually supportive relationships between girls as well as between girls and staff.

Whilst the school retains a nationally outstanding academic record, its focus continues to be on nurturing the girls’ natural curiosity and fuelling their passion for learning. Therefore, we select girls on their personal strengths and all-round ability, as well as their academic potential. It is a characteristic of Badminton girls that they are thoughtful individuals, able to evaluate information and decide for themselves. This approach extends beyond their studies and into the day-to-day life of the school, where girls are given a wide range of opportunities to grow, develop and express themselves in an enormous range of activities. Badminton School welcomes pupils from families in the Armed Forces and offers a warm, kind, “home from home” environment for girls whose parents are traveling, living or working abroad. The best way to understand the school and to enjoy its atmosphere is to come and visit. Please do contact us to arrange a private visit, or book your place on one of our forthcoming open events.
