Jersey College for Girls

Founded in 1880, JCG has been at the forefront of girls’ education in Jersey for 140 years and has a well deserved reputation for academic excellence and service to the island community.

Our students thrive on expert teaching, state of the art facilities and a vast range of extra-curricular, enrichment and expedition activities. They are enterprising, friendly and ambitious and they have wonderful purpose, energy and sense of service to others. Our staff care and are dedicated, creative and talented.

Our exceptional academic results are a testimony to the personal and collective success of all at JCG. From here, our students go on to study at good universities, both in the United Kingdom and across the world. In our College, our students and our colleagues have a passion for learning and the desire to be the very best person we can be. Our style of learning, whether in the classroom or our expansive co-curricular programme, is shaped around how our girls learn best and enables them to flourish.

We believe that the JCG experience extends further than our walls and becomes part of the fabric of our students’ lives as they pass through our care. To put it simply, through our belief in them and our care for them, we empower our students to want to build a better world.

When the time comes for our students to leave JCG and move on to university or the working world, we aim to have equipped them to believe in themselves, relish opportunities, challenge prejudice and to deeply value the positive effect their service can have on their wider community.

We recognise the importance of these precious years at JCG and the lasting memories they provide. They should be enjoyed to the full; happy children are more likely to thrive. Therefore, every decision we make has our students’ well-being at its heart. As such, we prize the strength of relationships that exist between each other. Our students know how valued they are.
