Admissions

The admissions process at Croydon High School is broad, well structured and centred on long-term fit across the age range rather than a single one-off entry point. Croydon High makes the route easy to navigate online, but the familiar GDST structure still gives the process a polished, selective feel at the main senior entry points.

How the school describes itself

  • Croydon High is confident, modern and unmistakably girls-focused, with GDST polish and a wide educational horizon. The school is energetic, aspirational and self-assured.

Parents like

  • A compelling choice for families who want a confident all-girls school with GDST polish, strong ambition and a broad age range on one educational arc.

Inspection snapshot

Croydon High has a strong public footprint, a clear GDST identity and a well-signposted admissions route. That makes the practical due diligence easier, leaving families to focus on culture, pace and whether the all-girls environment feels energising.

Croydon High makes the route easy to navigate online, but the familiar GDST structure still gives the process a polished, selective feel at the main senior entry points.

Scholarships

Scholarships and bursaries are a genuine part of the GDST admissions picture, and Croydon High makes clear that scholarship consideration is built into the process rather than hidden away.

Bursaries

Croydon High publishes GDST bursaries for girls joining Year 7 and Lower Sixth who would not otherwise be able to benefit from a Croydon High education. The school says bursaries are means-tested and based on household income and financial resources.

  • Year 7 and Lower Sixth entry.
  • The official page confirms means-tested bursaries, but no standard remission range is published.
  • Families should indicate interest through the admissions process and be prepared to provide full evidence of household income and assets.
