Howells School, Llandaff

Howells School, Llandaff has been educating Cardiffs daughters since 1860. Our school was founded on a pioneering approach to educating girls, and our future aims are no less ambitious. A Howells girl is free to be herself. She is free to be ambitious, to be competitive, to be creative; to be a sports captain, a scientist, or a clown. Howells girls mature into young adults in a culture free from gender bias, encouraging them to believe that nothing is beyond their reach or consideration. All this develops a self-confidence and resilience that stays with them throughout their lives. Research currently shows that girls confidence starts to decline at the age of 8, and it only improves from the age of 80. Howells instills in girls the confidence they need for a successful future, and the teachers delight in watching them grow to become more assertive and willing to ask questions, make mistakes and take risks. We are proud to be a part of the Girls Day School Trust
