The GDST

Empowering Education Across the UK

The Girls’ Day School Trust (GDST) is the largest group of independent schools in the UK and the nation’s leading educational charity.

With 23 schools and two academies, the GDST provides an exceptional education characterised by academic excellence and a rich array of co-curricular activities, all at highly competitive fees.


 

Pioneering Spirit

Trust students were among the first women to earn university degrees and enter professional fields, and this pioneering spirit continues today. The GDST encourages pupils to cultivate intellectual curiosity, diverse interests, and essential life skills. We maintain strong connections with our sister schools, sharing best practices and fostering a healthy competitive spirit through numerous Trust-wide sports tournaments.

International Collaboration

The GDST actively pursues international links and collaboration, ensuring that each school incorporates a global dimension into the educational experience. This broadens our students’ horizons and prepares them for an interconnected world.

Lifelong Connections

Upon graduation, students automatically join the GDST Alumnae Network, a vibrant community of 70,000 former students worldwide. Members of this network are leaders in every professional field, offering invaluable careers advice, training, and work experience opportunities to current students and recent graduates.


The Girls’ Day School Trust is a Limited Company registered in England (No. 6400) and a Registered Charity (No. 306983).
Our registered office is located at 10 Bressenden Place, London, SW1E 5DH. VAT Registration No. 627697394.
