Shrewsbury High School is a private day school for girls from ages 4 – 18 in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England. It is an original member school of the Girls' Day School Trust.[1]
Shrewsbury High School opened as a day school for girls in 1885. In 1893 the rising star Ethel Gavin took over as head.[2] The school had outgrown its site and it moved to its present location on the banks of the River Severn in central Shrewsbury in 1895.[citation needed] Gavin moved on to another headship in 1897.[2] The junior department transferred to Kennedy Road in 1959. In 2008 a new prep school was formed by the merger of the existing junior department with Kingsland Grange, a boys’ prep school. The Junior Department has now moved to the historic Town Walls campus as an all-through all-girls school from 4-18.
The Senior Department is located on Town Walls, by the banks of the River Severn.
Ethel Gavin had a meteoric career: headmistress of the Shrewsbury high school in 1893 at the age of twenty-seven, she was appointed to Notting Hill high school at thirty-four
