James Allen's Girls' School - Girls' Schools Association

James Allen’s Girls’ School (JAGS) has been inspiring and educating pupils for over 280 years.

And while it may hold the title of London’s oldest independent girls’ school, its reputation is built upon a forward-thinking focus and unwavering commitment to providing a full, rich and balanced education.

Pupils flourish in an environment which nurtures self-confidence and independence, while feeling supported through outstanding pastoral care from dedicated members of staff and their peers.

The school strives to attract intellectually curious girls regardless of economic background and is one of the leading schools in the country for its support of a large number of bursary students.

Currently, around 1 in 6 senior school pupils receive a bursary. The majority of financially assisted pupils are supported with more than 90% of fees, as well as the costs of uniform, travel, school trips and lunches.
