Facilities
Sheffield Girls school encourages pupils to be involved with extra-curricular activities by providing outstanding facilities in music, ICT, sport, the library & more.
A building development programme of £3.5 million is providing more opportunities in examination courses and extra-curricular development. In the past two years, we have seen the development of a new cookery room and a complete refurbishment of the Gym.
It's not just our fantastic facilities that make us the best Sheffield secondary school; read more about studying here.
