Northfleet School for Girls is an exciting, vibrant and friendly school which values every individual as a professional member of the whole team.

Our vision is that all students should dream big and achieve. This is realised through working closely together, having high expectations in all areas and enjoying the journey.

We benefit from a high quality new build a few years ago, good results and positive students who are very much with us on the journey to excellence. We have a growing status in the community as a Co-operative Learning Trust and the values this brings shapes the way we work together for the best of all the stakeholders. The school is now expanding and this is allowing us to invest in recruiting new staff to join our team.

We operate under a College system where we combine academic and pastoral aspects under five Colleges, each with their own College Leader. Whilst much of the work of the subjects is consistent across the school, each of the Colleges develops its own character, ethos and extra opportunities.

Catering for all abilities, the school is proud of the progress and success of all its young people, its varied curriculum and its wide range of extra-curricular activities. It is well supported by experienced Trustees and Governors who are actively involved in the life of the school.
