Thank you for taking the time to visit the Devonport High School for Girls’ website.  I am very proud to be the Head Teacher here in a school where the staff and I value each and every young person as an individual and support them on their journey into adulthood.  At Devonport High School for Girls, our mission is to ensure that all of our students receive an exceptional educational experience, through a wealth of opportunities within a nurturing environment, leading to outstanding achievements.  We provide a wide range of exciting extra-curricular and enriching learning opportunities, which means that we can develop the skills, talents and potential of the whole person. 

Our teachers, support staff and Trustees are all committed to the DHSG mission and strive to ensure that it becomes a reality for our students.  DHSG has a long tradition of excellence and was founded in 1908. We are proud of our history, but our main focus is looking to the future.  We are a 21st century grammar school, whilst retaining the best academic traditions.  

Choosing a secondary school is a difficult decision; it is, however, an important one.  I would encourage you to visit us to see what we have to offer and look forward to meeting you in the future.
