Confidence Begins Here
Research consistently shows that girls educated in an all-girls school achieve higher levels of academic success, develop greater levels of confidence and set more ambitious career goals.
As the regions only secondary girls’ school, Loreto College offers a holistic education tailored to the unique learning needs of girls. We empower our students to discover their individual learning styles and inspire them to aim for excellence and thrive in all areas of life.
Studies also show that students in all-girl schools more readily establish their optimal style of learning and are better prepared for the transition to post-secondary education. In addition, girls’ school graduates tend to be more engaged in their communities, demonstrate greater cultural competence, and show increased political engagement, and are more likely to use their voices confidently and rise to higher levels of leadership.

Our emphasis on leadership, community involvement, and global citizenship ensures that our students emerge as confident, well-rounded individuals who are ready to take on the world.
At their heart, girls’ schools are places of leadership. Places where community and collaboration, agency and self-efficacy flourish. But most of all, girls’ schools are places of incredible innovation.International Coalition of Girls Schools
