About Us

Notre Dame is Plymouth’s only comprehensive school for girls.
Part of a worldwide network of schools founded by the Sisters of Notre Dame, this is a Catholic school that welcomes all those who want to learn in a supportive, caring and aspirational environment.
Notre Dame offers a broad and balanced curriculum, with increasing choice and focus as students’ progress through the school, alongside a wide range of extra curricular activities.
This year the school sees its 150th anniversary of its founding in Plymouth, and there is a lot to celebrate!
Notre Dame was judged by Ofsted in its latest inspection as being a ‘good’ school and a Diocesan Inspection rated us as ‘outstanding’.
Girls from across Plymouth and beyond enjoy what the inspectors recognised as a ‘very strong family and faith atmosphere’ and are supported in their progress because ‘relationships between teachers and students are excellent’.
This, together with ‘excellent spiritual, moral, social and cultural development’ means Notre Dame students are ready to make the most of their futures.
In the past year, the school has seen students leave to take up a whole host of opportunities, including Oxford University, starting employment, or beginning apprenticeships.
Whatever their plans, Notre Dame girls are prepared because of the school’s focus on education of the whole child: ‘head, heart and hands’.

Our Childcare Provision

Notre Dame offers a wide range of extra activities both during school hours, and after school. From sports clubs and drama to music, art, science and technology there is plenty to choose from. Older students benefit from a vibrant Duke of Edinburgh Awards Scheme as well as a whole range of trips and visits.
The school runs Challenge Week every three years, regular Dimension Days when normal lessons give way to new approaches to learning, and there is an exchange programme for students with Notre Dame Academy near Boston, USA.
The school also provides a strong faith life. Retreats, reflections, liturgies and Mass are part of the pattern of the school year.
