BHGS Open Day & Tours 2021

Welcome to Bishop’s Hatfield’s Girls’ School Open Day.

I have the privilege of being the Headteacher at this outstanding school and I am proud to give you an insight into school life, our ethos and values, and our fantastic facilities.

Mr Wood

Our Open Evening 2021 takes place on Tuesday 5th October from 6 to 9pm (for Year 6 pupils and parents/carers only), when prospective pupils (Year 6) and their parents are able to look around our school and listen to a Headteacher welcome talk. We allocate tickets on a first come, first served basis to one of 4 slots between 6 and 7:30pm. There is only very limited parking on site. So planning your visit ahead of time is essential. In order for everyone to feel comfortable on site, we would like you to refer to our Covid protocol.

We also take bookings for Open Day Tours for the week beginning 11th October 2021 (Monday to Friday, 9:10am, 11:10am or 1:30pm). These are also for Year 6 pupils and parents/carers only. To make an appointment, please call our Admin Office on 01707 275331 .

You can also discover our school through a range of virtual resources below, including a virtual tour, speeches by our current and former pupils as well as parents and governors, general and subject specific information about our curriculum, enrichment clubs and much more.

Headteacher’s Welcome

Mr Alf Wood

"The headteacher has maintained a laser-like focus on teaching and learning." "The climate for learning in the school is exceptionally positive. Excellent and caring staff bring out the best in pupils. The pupils thrive in a secure and calm environment." "The curriculum is broad and balanced. There is a wide range of extra-curricular activity, with every teacher running at least one activity. There is a very strong focus on literacy." "Pupils of all abilities make very strong progress and achieve very high results across a wide range of subjects." "Pupils’ personal development is a jewel in the crown of this school."
