Kendrick School is a selective academy for girls aged 11-18 and is acknowledged as one of the best state schools in the country. In all its OFSTED inspections, Kendrick was judged outstanding. Kendrick is proud of its superb reputation and the opportunities it affords its students to participate in an all-round education where their thirst for knowledge and love of learning is nurtured in a secure and caring environment. If your daughter is in Year 5 and showing academic potential at her primary school and has an enquiring mind and a love of learning, we invite you to attend one of our Open Day sessions.
The sessions will take place in either the morning or afternoon and will last approximately 1½ hours. There will be a tour of the school with our students, and a talk by the Headteacher, Ms Kattirtzi and our Student Leader Team.

Adults without a child will not be admitted to the school. Where possible please do not bring younger children to the event, however, if this unavoidable please note that we cannot accommodate pushchairs around the school.
