About this Event
Blackheath High School is a central London school for girls aged 3-18, situated on the edge of Royal Greenwich Park with a beautiful village feel, a stone's throw from Canary Wharf and the City.
We are on a mission to empower girls to dream big, think differently and achieve the extraordinary. Blackheath High is more than just a school - we’re a launchpad for future leaders, creatives, changemakers, and trailblazers. This is a place where girls boldly go.
We warmly invite you and your daughter to join us for our Senior ‘School in Action’ Morning on Thursday 8 October and experience the vibrancy of our school on a typical teaching day.
What to expect:
- Guided tours: Our friendly students will lead you through our state-of-the-art environment, offering you a firsthand look at our teaching and learning spaces, our specialist sports facilities, inspirational performance areas and much more
- Classroom insights: Observe lessons in action and witness the exceptional teaching and ambitious curriculum that saw Blackheath High achieve its highest ever GCSE and A-level results in 2025
- Head’s Talk: hear from our Head Mrs Argile about what sets Blackheath High apart as a truly inspiring and supportive environment for girls to thrive
- Meet the team: Chat with members of our Senior Leadership and Admissions teams, who will be happy to answer any questions you may have
