Parent Testimonials
We understand choosing the best school for your child can be a difficult decision. Here are some thoughts from our current parents at MHSG, on why they chose us:
Iram Cheema, a Reception parent, said: "We were delighted when our second daughter was offered a place at MHSG. Her older sister had an amazing time learning and making wonderful friends. We were excited as a family as we knew the fantastic experience our youngest daughter would go through.
"I would highly recommend MHSG to any parent with girls as you see their confidence and love for learning flourish."
Karen, a Year 5 parent and MHSG alumna, said: “I very much wanted my daughter to have the same experience as I did, being a pupil myself at MHSG in the 1990s. I wanted her to have the wonderful opportunities, the excellent academic challenges and to make the type of school friends I have: friends who have carried me through my entire life and are still some of the most amazing, intelligent, supportive and exceptional women I have had the privilege to be with.
"To me there was never any choice but MHSG!”
Annabelle Marston, a current Year 8 parent, said: “We knew we didn’t want to send her to the huge local state Grammar School. We looked at a number of independent schools and MHSG fitted all our criteria, from pastoral care, class size, facilities, subjects on offer and extracurricular activities. Our daughter was the only girl from her Prep school in her form, and made lots of friends during the Year 7 Taster Day.
"She has been happy since day one, and we know we made the right decision.”
A Year 11 parent and MHSG alumna said: “We moved our daughter from a local prep school at the start of Year 5 for a variety of reasons, but one was to eliminate the 11+ exam stress in the Altrincham area. Her siblings also moved from their local schools to MGS at the same time, so it made sense to move everyone together and remove the stress of entrance exams.
“Out of all of the single sex schools on offer, I do feel that MHSG empowers the girls to do whatever they want in life, which is something that resonates so strongly with me and my fellow alumnae. MHSG gives you the confidence to do whatever you want, regardless of your sex.
"It never ever occurred to me that I couldn't do something because I was a woman.”
