About Us
Sydenham has a long tradition of educating girls, often pioneering innovation and development. We believe that creativity inspires, evokes learning and enables students to make connections across subjects, between our school and other schools, as well as the local community and the wider world. Student achievement is at the centre of all we do.
Sydenham School is a STEM school – with strengths in Science and Mathematics and an additional focus on Technology and Engineering. Equally committed to the Arts, Humanities and Languages, we provide a curriculum which is broad, exciting and challenges students, across the full range of national expectations.
By bringing together teaching programmes, imaginative projects, events and Development opportunities, our aim is to offer our girls the chance to see how the world and society could be different. We want our students to feel empowered to make their own decisions and to be confident and motivated to learn, to perform and make things happen.
To achieve this, we have a strong vision and expectation of every student is high. We nurture each individual to help her explore her own talents and make sure that she makes the most of all the opportunities available. When she leaves Sydenham, the young girl has become a young woman.
