Why Queen's

Queen’s College, London and Queen’s College Preparatory School offer an education shaped by nearly two centuries of pioneering spirit and a clear vision: to empower girls to lead with confidence, compassion and intellectual ambition. Since 1848, Queen’s has been at the forefront of girls’ education, challenging convention and opening doors that continue to shape futures today.

We are proudly pastorally-led, placing wellbeing at the heart of school life, because lasting success is grounded in care and belonging. Alongside this, our academic standards are ambitious and rigorous, inspiring pupils to think independently and enjoy being challenged.

Located in Marylebone in central London, our pupils draw daily inspiration from the city’s parks, museums and cultural institutions as an extension of the classroom. This powerful combination of heritage, pastoral strength and academic excellence makes Queen’s a distinctive choice.

A Welcome from
The Principal

We live in a fast-moving age where young women have many conflicting pressures on them, and an unprecedented degree of choice as to which path they can take through life. These extraordinary times require an extraordinary school, and we believe we have one at Queen’s.

Ours is a community where success comes not from pressure, but from tolerance, kindness and respect. Supported by outstanding teaching and pastoral care, pupils learn not just their subjects, but to value themselves and each other, leaving with a clear sense of who they are and how they can make a difference.

Our academic results speak for themselves, but our pupils are our finest ambassadors.

Do come and meet them to find out more about what makes Queen’s so special.
