Senior department
Girls aged 11-18
 Our small class sizes, highly dedicated and individualised teaching, progress monitoring and close partnership between pupils, teachers and parents has resulted in a our students consistently achieving excellent GCSE results over recent years.
We are proud of our 100% pass rate, particularly as our students have a wide ability range. For entry into Year 7 all children sit an entrance exam. We also look for enthusiasm and commitment and we endeavour to ensure that each student achieves her maximum potential, whether academic, artistic or creative.
As girls enter the Senior department, they are taught by dedicated specialist subject teachers, with individual learning goals set and performance monitored, as we continue to develop the whole being of each student, helping to uncover their destiny.

Community Service
Throughout the year, pupils are encouraged to become involved in fundraising for local and national charities, helping each child to develop good community spirit with respect and consideration for others.
|
Sports
We believe that it is important to maintain a combination of academic, artistic and sporting activity and we provide children with a regime of physical exercise to balance the challenges of their daily academic work.

Expressive Arts
St Dominic’s is renowned for its musical and dramatic excellence and is frequently approached by companies for our pupils to audition in local productions.
Art, Design, Drama, Music and Singing all play a vitally important role at St Dominic’s. They reinforce the values of the school and help to build confidence and develop team spirit.

Facilities
Continued investment has led to a series of developments and improvements at St Dominic’s School over recent years, including new security systems, high tech laboratories, installing the latest interactive white boards and a brand new state of the art ICT suite with ‘intellidesk’ technology.
