Skipton Girls’ High School is a thriving and successful secondary school, with sixth form, based in Skipton. Our school community of 900, includes students from the districts of Craven, Bradford, North Yorkshire, Lancashire and beyond. Students at SGHS are ambitious, kind, articulate and a lot of fun! They are open to new experiences and grab opportunities with both hands. They care about the world we live in and set high standards for living sustainably.

Students make friends for life at SGHS and understand that when we support each other, there is no limit to what we can achieve.

Our staff are experts in their field who instil a love of their subject in all students. They place equal value on their own learning, staying at the forefront of their profession, through educational research and academia and are exceptional role models for our students. Our staff are our students’ greatest champions, valuing their happiness and future success.

Our setting beautifully reflects our values and ethos, with traditional buildings sitting comfortably beside our state-of-the-art STEM centre. As participants in our laptop scheme, all students at SGHS have ownership of their own device to enhance their learning and increase their digital literacy. Students and staff are inspired by the beautiful grounds that provide fertile ground for learning and space to relax, let off some steam or simply be.

We are held up by the success of our history and driven forwards with innovation and tenacity.

At SGHS, we know how our students learn, think and feel and we know how to empower them so that they can continue the SGHS tradition of pioneering, trailblazing young adults, ready to take on the ever-changing world with compassion and excitement.

We are a mission-driven Multi-Academy Trust, with an unwavering commitment to nurture learning in a sustainable environment so that our whole community can thrive, aspire and succeed. We offer access to a professional and supportive community of academies, senior leaders, and mentors to help develop and progress your career.

We can offer a commitment to your professional development, the opportunity to work in part with colleagues from primary and secondary schools across the MAT and the chance to be a part of something truly special.
