STOODLEY KNOWLE
Stoodley Knowle is a leading Independent Catholic/Christian girls' day school set in 65 acres of wooded headland, overlooking the sea at Anstey's Cove, Torquay and has extensive facilities with many listed buildings of historic interest. The school is a warm and caring community where each individual is considered unique, and equal emphasis is placed on academic performance, personal development and creative and sporting activities.

We nurture, extend and challenge our pupils. The needs, potential and aspirations of pupils develop within an outward looking and responsive community which cares for and supports each individual.

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE
The nursery, preparatory and senior schools offer a seamless transition from those precious early years through to A Level studies and although non-selective, we have a strong tradition of academic excellence.
High calibre dedicated staff; small classes and a broad and balanced curriculum are all essential factors in Stoodley Knowle's outstanding record of external examination attainment. Every year our examination success places us in the top 5% of schools in the country for value added performance.

CONTACT WITH HOME
We place great importance on the liaison between home and school and welcome regular and open contact with parents.

EXTRA CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
Girls participate in a breadth of activities led by committed and specialist staff and their achievements are outstanding. The News Pages reflect the available opportunities and also the enthusiasm with which the girls commit themselves to a dynamic and wide-ranging programme.

PASTORAL CARE
Girls at Stoodley discover more in themselves than they ever thought possible. We strive to nurture a happy and confident young person ready to face the challenges of the modern world inspired by Christian ideals. In a positive and caring environment, we encourage self-esteem, high moral standards, respect and care for each other, and a spirit of shared purpose and community service.
