Norbury High School for Girls

Message from Markieu Hayden, Headteacher

I am delighted to welcome you to Norbury High School for Girls, a richly diverse, non-denominational school for students aged 11–19 and a proud member of the Wandle Learning Trust family.

At Norbury, we take great pride in our reputation for providing a happy, caring, and inclusive environment where every student feels valued. Our strength lies in our cultural diversity, and we are committed to ensuring that all our young women have access to both academic excellence and the wide range of opportunities needed to prepare them for the future.

Our aim is not only to nurture intellectual growth but also to guide and support students in developing into empathetic, empowered young women who strive for excellence in all that they do. Central to our ethos are kindness, compassion, and mutual respect. We believe that equity is essential to true equality, and we are dedicated to treating every student fairly so that all can thrive.

We also recognise that mistakes are part of learning and growing. At Norbury, students are encouraged to reflect on their actions, understand their impact, and learn from them. Through dialogue, guidance, to help them build maturity, resilience, and responsibility.

Most importantly, we provide a safe environment where students can explore, grow, and flourish as confident young adults, ready to contribute positively to the world.

I warmly invite you to discover more about Norbury High School for Girls and to see for yourself the values, opportunities, and community spirit that make our school such a special place.
