Epworth School

Epworth gives girls an edge!

Be faithful…Be compassionate…Be courageous. Be exceptional…come to Epworth and be the best you can be!
For 123 years, Epworth has offered girls from Grades 8 to 12 a rich, holistic education based on its founding values of faith, compassion and courage. Today, Epworth is much more than a school. It is about more opportunities, more diversity, more challenges, and more experiences. We encourage our pupils to explore these opportunities, their abilities, their strengths and their environment. Ensuring pupils achieve and realise their full potential in all areas of school life is central to our educational ethos. Success is seeing pupils who aspire and work diligently to outperform their personal goals.
Epworth has an outstanding academic programme that is underpinned by well-qualified and passionate teaching staff, small classes and an open curriculum, giving pupils access to a range of academic disciplines. An effective academic support programme stretches the top pupils and offers support to those requiring additional help.
Our pupils excel in the National Independent Examination Board (IEB) Senior Certificate Examinations, consistently achieving 100% pass rate. We exceed the national IEB percentage for university entrance and every year, we celebrate pupils who achieve subjects in the top one percent of IEB pupils.
Cultural pursuits feature prominently and abundantly at Epworth. Pupils have the opportunity to express themselves through various art forms, developing their talents in music, dance, drama, art and debating.
Sport is an integral part of school life and Epworth caters equally for the elite and recreational sportswoman, offering a wide range of sporting codes. Our success at regional and national level is indicative of our high level of sport and is supported by experienced coaches.
Spirituality is infused in daily school life and pupils in all grades participate in community engagement activities.
Our boarding establishment, which caters for termly and weekly boarders, is home from home to half of our pupil body. Our comfortable facilities, caring staff and varied support structures ensure that our boarders’ physical, academic and emotional needs are met.
At Epworth, we aim to free the potential in individuals to become relevant, resilient and ethical leaders who contribute to our ever-changing world.
