Queen Margaret's School for Girls

QM is an independent boarding and day school for girls aged 11-18. You will find us in glorious parkland about six miles south of York. But we are much more than our surroundings: We’re a home from home, a family of learning and belonging. We are somewhere each and every girl can thrive, where they’ll be happy and healthy, grow their knowledge, skills and confidence, and make friends for life. We nurture girls to fulfil their ambitions and give them an amazing start in life.
