The event celebrates the success of our girls in Years 7-Upper Sixth, who have gone above and beyond this year, prizes range from Academic Excellence to the most prestigious accolade, the School Dux.

This year our special guest will be Sir Anthony Seldon, one of Britain’s leading contemporary historians, educationalists, commentators and political authors.

He was the co-founder and first director of the Centre for Contemporary British History, co-founder of Action for Happiness and a governor of the Royal Shakespeare Company.

In the 2014 Birthday Honours, he received a knighthood for services to education and modern political history.
