Welcome to Senior School

At Bridgewater School, we believe that holistic education is about shaping character as much as achieving results.

Our ethos places equal importance on academic ambition and personal development, ensuring every student is encouraged to explore their potential while fostering respect, resilience and responsibility. By offering a rich variety of team and group activities, alongside outstanding teaching, we empower every individual to flourish, both in and beyond the classroom.

Life in Senior School

The difference with Bridgewater is that the school enables a broader spectrum of children to achieve their best and develop holistically.

I just wanted to say that this school is amazing and I am so happy I go here. I wake up every school day excited to come to school.

- Senior School student - Year 8

I know that the education he received from Bridgewater will help him grow as an individual and give him all of the tools he needs to be successful in life.

- Former Bridgewater parent

I have come to realise over the years just how rare it is to find a school and community like Bridgewater. One so open and welcoming and whose staff never fails to extend help or kindness.
