St Catherine's School, Twickenham

St Catherine's School, Twickenham

St Catherine's School in Twickenham, London, England, is an independent school for girls established in 1914 by the Sisters of Mercy which became a charitable trust in 1992. It is the only independent Roman Catholic girls' school in the Richmond area. It remains a Roman Catholic foundation but takes students of all religious affiliations. It consists of a preparatory school (entry typically at age 3) and a senior school (entry at age 11). Nearly one third of the pupils are of minority ethnic groups, but more than ninety per cent of the pupils have English as a first language.

The school is next to the River Thames and a few minutes walk from Strawberry Hill and Twickenham Railway stations.

In 2005, the school had about 370 students.
