Wycombe Abbey is a private boarding school in Buckinghamshire exclusively for girls aged 11 to 18. Founded in 1896 by Dame Frances Dove, the school is firmly committed to academic excellence and upholds five essential qualities: risk-taking, resourcefulness, determination, reflection, and development.

Situated on a 69-hectare campus in central High Wycombe, the school's land includes woods, gardens, a Cold War bunker (RAF Daws Hill), and a lake, reaching up to 150 meters above sea level in the Chiltern Hills. The school owns the freehold, and several buildings, including the main house, hold Grade II listed status.

Girls joining at 11+ spend their first year in the junior house before transitioning to one of nine senior houses. Living in mixed-age bedrooms between 12 and 16 encourages friendships across different year groups. Final-year students reside in a separate boarding house to foster independence before university. Activities include house outings, dorm feasts, competitions, and leisure opportunities. Some social events are shared with boys from Eton College, Winchester College, Radley College, and Harrow School. Parents and siblings are also invited to participate in activities like bonfire nights, house dinners, and summer BBQs.

Consistently recognized as one of the UK's top girls' boarding schools, Wycombe Abbey students secure placements at world-renowned universities, with approximately a third attending Oxbridge each year. A growing number of girls also earn spots at North American universities such as Brown, Harvard, Stanford, and Yale.
