Think Beyond - St Albans High School for Girls

Think Beyond

At STAHS we are always thinking beyond; that’s why everything we do is geared towards preparing our pupils for their next steps. We call this our Teach to 25 philosophy. Our vision is for each child to become a happy, resilient young person who embraces opportunities. It’s how pupils at STAHS are prepared to live lives of consequence.

From our character education programme which starts in Reception, to our Super-curriculum that stretches pupils beyond the limits of exam specifications, to our formal two-year leadership programme for Sixth Formers, Teach to 25 runs through every aspect of a STAHS education. We equip STAHS pupils with the skills, independence and knowledge needed to navigate their path in the critical early years of adult life.
