Mulberry School for Girls is a high achieving, over-subscribed and successful girls’ comprehensive school for pupils aged 11 to 18.

Mulberry School for Girls is an exceptional, high-achieving and oversubscribed 11–18 comprehensive school in the heart of Tower Hamlets. We are proud to serve a richly diverse community and to provide an education rooted in ambition, inclusion and excellence.

As Principal, and as a former Mulberry student, it is both a privilege and a profound responsibility to lead this remarkable school. Mulberry shaped my own journey, and I am deeply committed to ensuring that every child who walks through our doors experiences the same sense of possibility and empowerment.

Our ethos is clear: Confidence, Creativity, Leadership and Love of Learning.

These values are not simply words; they are lived every day in our classrooms, corridors and wider community.

We nurture confidence so that our students find and use their voice with conviction. We cultivate creativity so that they think critically and imaginatively. We develop leadership so that our pupils contribute positively to their communities and wider society.

Above all, we foster a lifelong love of learning, ensuring that academic excellence is both expected and achieved.

We are unapologetically ambitious for every student. Our expectation is that all pupils leave Mulberry highly qualified, articulate and prepared to thrive in competitive universities, apprenticeships and careers. Year after year, our students secure outstanding examination results and progress to leading institutions, including Russell Group universities and international destinations. However, success at Mulberry is not defined by qualifications alone; it is reflected in the character, resilience and integrity of the students we nurture.

Mulberry School for Girls is proudly inclusive. We believe that background should never limit aspiration. Our pastoral care is strong, our SEND provision is robust, and our partnerships with families are central to our success. Every student is known, supported and challenged to achieve her very best.

Beyond the classroom, our enrichment programme is extensive and transformative. From women’s leadership conferences and Model United Nations to the arts, STEM partnerships, sport and residential visits, our students benefit from opportunities that broaden horizons and raise aspirations. Through collaboration with local, national and global organisations, we ensure that opportunity is not a privilege — it is an entitlement.

As part of the Mulberry Schools Trust, we are committed to Outstanding Achievement for All. Collaboration and shared expertise strengthen our provision and extend our impact across the borough and beyond.

Mulberry School for Girls is more than a school. It is a community built on aspiration, integrity, and shared purpose. We are relentless in our pursuit of high standards and equally committed to creating a safe, welcoming environment where every child can flourish.

We look forward to welcoming you soon.
