School History & Details

A group of evangelical Christians created Headington School Oxford in 1915 with the goal of giving girls "a sound education to fit them for the demands and opportunities likely to arise after the war." With only ten boarding and eight-day girls, the School got its start at Headington Lodge on Osler Road. The main school had its official opening in 1950.
