Shrewsbury High School is a private day school for girls from ages 4 â 18 in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England. It is an original member school of the Girls' Day School Trust.
Shrewsbury High School opened as a day school for girls in 1885. In 1893 the rising star Ethel Gavin took over as head. The school had outgrown its site and it moved to its present location on the banks of the River Severn in central Shrewsbury in 1895. Gavin moved on to another headship in 1897. The junior department transferred to Kennedy Road in 1959. In 2008 a new prep school was formed by the merger of the existing junior department with Kingsland Grange, a boys' prep school. The junior department has moved to the Town Walls campus as an all-through all-girls school from ages 4 to 18.
The senior department is on Town Walls, by the banks of the River Severn.
