Girls and boys who join Queen Ethelburga's College from other schools will come from a wide variety of backgrounds. Some will move up from our own Junior School - Chapter House Preparatory School. Each year we have an intake of new pupils who will all be a little nervous and unsure. The College has students from all over the United Kingdom. A small number of students will be from Europe, Asia and America.

You will be surprised at how easy it is to make friends. The friends you make whilst on campus are likely to become life long friends. You will find our teachers and staff are helpful, understanding and easy to talk to.

If you ever have any problems remember we will have helped someone before with similar worries. We have common sense and are very practical. When you leave us at the end of the Sixth Form we hope that you will keep in contact to let us know what you are doing and come back and see us on occasions.
