School Life

Malvern St James Girls' School is a leading independent day and boarding school for pupils aged 4-18. What helps to make us distinct and refreshing is our recognition and active support for the individual talents, interests and passions of girls, and the liberating and inclusive ethos the school embraces.

MSJ Pre-Prep spans the three years from Reception (age 4) to Year 2 (age 7). It sets the scene for a child’s educational journey in a warm, secure and creative learning environment.

MSJ Prep spans the four years from Year 3 (age 8) to Year 6 (age 11) and marks the transition from MSJ Pre-Prep to MSJ Seniors.

The focus of MSJ Seniors is to empower each girl to reach her personal potential and achieve results that exceed expectations. We equip girls to think independently, discover their own interests and become intellectually curious. Our experienced, carefully selected and inspirational teachers actively challenge and stretch learners to push boundaries and take pride in their achievements.

MSJ Sixth Form marks a departure from Senior School. These two years, as girls transition towards university, career and life beyond school, are incredibly important. Staff will expertly guide girls, whilst allowing them the freedom and independence to flourish as an individual.
