Malvern St James
Against the dramatic backdrop of the Malvern Hills, Malvern St James educates ambitious young women who want to excel both in the classroom and on the pitch. The school has recently launched its International Football Academy — a dedicated programme for aspiring female footballers that sits alongside strong GCSE and A-Level provision, STEM enrichment, and a track record of Russell Group and Oxbridge placements. MSJ is one of the few girls' schools in the country offering elite football development as a core part of school life.
