Tudor is an independent full & partial boarding and day school for girls aged 11-18 on the edge of the Cotswolds near Banbury. Join us at our next Open morning.

We have empowered every girl to flourish for 175 years. Tudor Hall School is unique in so many ways. It is a thriving, vibrant full boarding and day school which definitely ‘punches above its weight’. The academic results are excellent, produced by young women who have been selected for places at the school not just on their academic ability but also their personal strengths. The girls are not of

Why choose an all-girls education? The answer is simple, absolutely everything we do at Tudor is tailored to optimise girls’ educational experiences and outcomes with no exceptions. The outcomes say it all:

HIGHER ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT - girls do better at all girls’ schools than in other educational settings. Girls at girls’ schools outperform boys and girls at co-educational schools and outdo boys at all boys schools. This is equivalent to 10% higher GCSE grades (FFT Datalab analysis, May24).

EMPOWERED WITH CONFIDENCE TO BE THEMSELVES - learning in a single-sex environment means that there is freedom from stereotyping of being in classes with boys, and means girls in the same cohort achieve places at Oxford University or the London School of Economics or the London Fashion Academy.

TEACHING AND LEARNING WITH CREATIVITY - we optimise the learning experience of every girl, without having to cater for the other 50% of the classroom.

LEADERSHIP AND SERVICE - there is a huge range of ways Tudor girls can explore their talents or lead - and be seen to lead - across school life. Tudor girls know they have a voice and will be heard.

KINDNESS AND LIFELONG FRIENDSHIPS - pastoral care and support is tailored entirely to girls’ needs, challenges and ambitions. Our horizontal boarding model creates a special environment in which girls get to know everyone in their year and, in addition to forming friendships for life, develop tolerance, diversity of opinion, compromise, understanding, kindness and inclusion.

As a parent commented, “Tudor provides an opportunity for girls to be themselves, with the Tatler Schools Guide 2026 stating, “The girls are encouraged to take what they do seriously, but not take themselves too seriously.”

In sum, Tudor empowers every girl to flourish.

Molly (Tiny Todd) has been awarded Musician of the Month for May in recognition of her excellent commitment and contribution to the Music Department at Tudor. She has demonstrated considerable dedication, successfully completing two Trinity examinations on the same day, achieving a Distinction in Singing and an excellent result in Piano.

Throughout the term, Molly has been a valued member of the Junior Choir contributing with enthusiasm.  She also performed as part of the 175 Musicathon, singing and playing the piano, further exemplifying her commitment to the musical life of the School. 

The Music School is always a hub of activity and creativity. Over 140 individual music lessons happen every week; we believe that being able to play an instrument or sing is a fantastic asset, whatever the level of expertise. Pupils gain confidence and intellectual acumen, build spatial and sequencing skills, bond with others in ensembles, and can relax whilst playing their instruments or singing with friends. Music ensembles include: Orchestra, Chamber Choir, Senior Choir, Syncopation (Junior Choir), Flute Ensemble, String Group, Senior and Junior Contemporary Bands and Theory Group.

Our calendar of concerts caters for all musical tastes and enables the girls to perform inhibited in an all-girl environment:

🎵Tudor Fest - a real music festival where our pupils are given the opportunity to perform Musicals - junior and full school productions each year.

🎵Music department concerts.

🎵Performance Platforms.

🎵Open mic evenings.

🎵’Songs From the Shows’ musicals evenings.

The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award participants at Tudor have notched up 1,508 volunteering hours in the past 12 months which has a social value of £11,384.

Tudor girls have volunteered in a huge variety of ways for a range of organisations and causes, including assisting in local care homes and teaching in primary schools, writing letters and being pen-pals with senior citizens, running sporting clubs, supporting the local Brownie pack, assisting in the art, textiles and ceramics departments, dog walking, babysitting and gardening.

To do their DofE Awards, young people choose activities in four sections: improving a Physical and Skills activity, Volunteering for a cause of their choice, and completing a demanding Expedition. Along the way they have fun, grow in resilience and self-belief, discover new talents and passions, and learn practical skills to help them in future.

Tudor’s motto Habeo ut dem - I have that I may give - resonates throughout school life. Opportunities to support others and give back to society include Tudor in Three Continents, roles within the Charity Committee, the Outreach and Enrichment Programme as well as Mentoring and ‘Sixth Form Sisters’.

To find out more about the opportunities available for your daughter at Tudor, contact Registrar Elspeth Dyer at [email protected] or call 01295 756259.
