Welcome to Marymount International School London. We are delighted you are considering us for your daughter’s education, a responsibility and privilege we take very seriously.  

Marymount is a distinguished Catholic, all-girls’ day and boarding school situated in a beautiful garden campus 12 miles from London. As an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School, we proudly stand as the first all-girls’ school to adopt this curriculum in the United Kingdom back in 1979, positioning ourselves as a leading institution that consistently achieves excellent results. This ‘gold standard’ of education provides our students with a broad and balanced curriculum where the learning is contextualised ensuring students understand where their knowledge fits into the world. 

Our commitment to education goes beyond academic excellence; at Marymount, in keeping with the educational philosophy of our founding Religious of the Sacred Heart of Mary (RSHM) Sisters and that of Mother Butler, we are dedicated to providing a holistic educational experience that develops and nurtures the unique potential, gifts and talents of every student. With our small class sizes, our students are known as individuals fostering a supportive and personalized learning environment. Who we teach is as important as what we teach. As you might expect we have a comprehensive extra-curricular and co-curricular provision allowing our students to explore and develop their passions beyond the classroom. 

“It is a huge privilege to be a part this wonderful community and to ensure its continued success in providing a first-rate holistic education for each and every student. I have forged strong relationships the girls, staff, parents, alumnae and Governors; who together embody the school’s motto ‘That all may have life’. ”
