Our Strategic Plan

Our strategy focuses on three Strategic Goals to ensure girls continue to benefit from a unique Sherborne Girls’ experience and world-class education. These are underpinned by six Core Pillars, which outline our educational priorities. Our Strategic Plan for 2024 is summarised in this booklet and below.

Strategic Goals

1. Educational Offering: We will refine our offering – focusing on what our families value and shaping, adapting and investing in our provision to deliver a world-class education.
2. Financial Resilience: We will build financial resilience – maximising our estate, the shape of the School and non-fee income to endure the external challenges and ensure we continue to thrive.
3. Sustainable Development: We will realise development opportunities – cultivating our partnerships with Sherborne School and Hanford to enhance our reputation and reach, and deliver efficiencies.

1. Enhance our position as a leading full-boarding school
2. Cultivate our culture of aspiration and wellbeing
3. Embrace latest technologies to enhance learning, develop future skills and drive efficiencies
