Edgbaston High School for Girls company history timeline

1876

The School was founded in 1876 by George Dixon and distinguished local families from the Quaker and Unitarian traditions including the Albrights, Chamberlains, Martineaus and Mathews.

1878

The School aimed always to be at the forefront of girls' education and this was reflected in the curriculum right from the start; a school inspector in 1878 was impressed by the girls' standard "and their healthy freedom from silliness, tittering and affectation".

1913

The Preparatory Department was established in 1913 for children aged 4-9 and EHS took boys for a limited time including Sir Adrian Cadbury, Sir Bernard Zissman, Peter Barwell and Denis Martineau.

1940

EHS was briefly evacuated during the Second World War in early 1940, moving to share facilities with Stroud High School for Girls where school was limited to afternoons only and mornings taken up with sport and prep.

2011

In 2011, the School completed its most ambitious project yet, resulting in a modern glass facade, extended main Reception and Library and state-of-the-art Sixth Form centre and accommodation.
