Plymouth High School for Girls
PHSG is a Grammar school that builds on a long tradition of excellence. Our motto “For Life Not School We Learn” is at the heart of what drives us forward.
Hearing similar thoughts and concerns across the trust is fascinating and will drive meaningful changes.

In celebration of our 150th anniversary, we're highlighting the rich culinary traditions passed down through the years.
The Great 'PHSG History' Bake-Off was a flavourful journey through time, where students used authentic 1960s recipes to revive classic treats and showcase the timeless appeal of traditional baking.
The final featured a delightful hot cross-bun recipe that truly captured the essence of our school's culinary history.
