Information about the School
Located in the heart of Chelmsford, Chelmsford County High School for Girls is one of the most successful girls’ selective schools in the country.
We are rated as an “outstanding” school, a badge we are proud to hold and which applies to all areas of the School’s activities.
Chelmsford County High School for Girls has been a single academy trust since 2011. This status offers us a range of opportunities to pursue academic goals whilst running the school as a limited company. The School expanded to 6 forms of entry in September 2020 in response to increasing demand for grammar school places in the area and over 1,300 girls sit our entrance test each year. Expansion will be completed by 2024 and we expect our Sixth Form to grow as a result.
Our school is led by a strong team of senior staff and governors who are constantly striving for excellence, seizing all opportunities for the benefit of our students and our staff.
