Incredible GCSE results at Leicester High School for Girls! 🎉 39% of grades were Grade 9, with 68% at 9-8. Congratulations to our students and thanks to our wonderful staff! 🌟 #GCSEResults #ProudSchool #AcademicExcellence

Sadly it wasn't to be today. The girls did the school so proud and fought until the very end but fell agonisingly short just missing out in the bronze medal match. Everyone had a fantastic day. Massive thank you to everyone who supported today.

Amazing night at our Summer Leavers' Ball! 🌟✨ Year 11 & Year 13 students looked stunning in their attire, parents enjoyed drinks & canapés, then off to Belmont Hotel for dinner & dancing! 🎉👗💃 #LeaversBall #Celebration #Memories

Our year 7/8 and 9/10 cricket teams are playing their first ever game this afternoon. Thanks to @crownhillssport for hosting.

🎓✨Wonderful to celebrate our pupils' achievements at the Senior Prize Giving evening! Inspiring speech from our Headmaster, Mr. Alan Whelpdale with contributions from our pupils. A special thanks to actress Jenny Seagrove. Best of luck to all students on results day!

Incredibly proud of our Sports leaders who led to other schools for the first time at @InspireTogeth3r This Girl Can festival. They ran activities all day really enjoyed the experience.

Our Lower School pupils had a wonderful day at Stonehurst Farm! They enjoyed tractor and pony rides, visited the car museum, fed animals, and had fun playing and climbing. A day well spent! 🌾🚜 #SchoolTrip #StonehurstFarm #LearningFun

Hello Manjula. Lovely seeing you last Tuesday in London.

Did you know that mental health disorders are 1.5-2.5x lower for girls who play sports, compared to girls who have never played?

We celebrated the last week for Years 11 & 13 at Leicester High! 📚 Year 13's moving assembly and Year 11's pizza lunch & shirt signing made it unforgettable. We wish them well and look forward to celebrating the end of exams with them in June.🌟 #ClassOf2024 #FutureReady
