At Portsmouth High School our aim is to ensure that girls achieve their potential and that they flourish in a stimulating and caring environment. We have a well-earned reputation for providing a safe, secure and friendly school where all members of the school community feel that they can work and play in a relaxed but purposeful atmosphere.

We hope that everyone will reach good academic standards - our public examination results each year indicate that we know how to do that - but we also value the contributions individuals make to sport; the creative arts; public speaking; social and charitable work; in fact, to a whole range of curricular and extra-curricular activities.
