Malvern St James is a leading independent day and boarding school for girls aged 3-18 located in Malvern, Worcestershire. We are experienced in providing a ‘home-away- from-home’ for Forces families and our first-class pastoral support helps to provide consistency and stability to ensure your daughter thrives. Our Forces families value the flexibility and individual support that our wrap around care offers and many of our boarding staff are themselves part of Forces families.
The School focus is on inspiring teaching to deliver excellent academic results. We pride ourselves on the fact that there is no ‘MSJ type’ and understand that all our girls have different talents and strengths. Girls can pursue their passions and interests in the field of their choice, it may be engineering, politics, sports or expressive arts – all routes are equal. The enrichment programme is extensive and has something for everyone: including clubs for budding engineers and scientists, extra-curricular languages, drama, music, sport of every kind, Young Enterprise and Model United Nations.
We understand the flexibility Forces families need and will support you and your daughter in every way possible. If your family is eligible for the Continuity of Education Allowance (CEA), you only need to pay 10% of our boarding fees. For families not eligible for the CEA, we offer a Forces Family Discount.
