"The school motto permeates leadership and management's planning as does their concern for every pupil in their care."

International Students

Thank you for considering St Martha’s as an option for your daughter’s education in UK.  I hope you will consider us to be suitable partners in your desire to provide the best you can for her.  It is our mission at Saint Martha’s to provide a safe, secure environment.  The girls studying at St Martha’s develop the life skills that will see them enter and cope with the challenges of best universities in UK and beyond.  We demand the highest standards of work whilst providing as much support as needed in our small classes.  Our staff will do everything possible to help your daughter transfer to London and settle in with us.  Our teachers are very skilled in the special way of teaching girls and we pride ourselves in approaching our work with a full understanding of the uniqueness of girls’ education.  This provides our students with the best possible chance of success whether they head to University such as  Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial or LSE or to one of the specialist colleges like the London School of Fashion.

I am aware that it is a very big decision as parents to see our girls move away from home for the first time.  As a father of three girls myself I am conscious of the need to feel that our daughters are safe and secure.  I can assure you that the girls at St. Martha’s enjoy a very special education in a very special environment.   This section of the web provides much of the information you should be aware of when coming to live in host family accommodation.  I hope that you find this reassuring.  There is also information concerning your visa requirements and other formalities.  You can also contact us directly with any questions that you may have.

This may be your daughters first visit to the UK and possibly even the first time away from home, so we will do our best to help you settle her into her new surroundings and to make her stay here a happy and successful one.

Please take some time to familiarise yourself with the web pages.  Do not worry if you do not understand everything, we will answer any queries you have when you arrive or you may just wish to contact us in advance of any decision to join us.  This is fine and we will be happy to help you with your queries.  Please do look at all sections of our website for further information about life at St. Martha’s school.  I look forward to welcoming your daughter to our school.

Yours sincerely,

James Sheridan
Headmaster
