The Ladies' College is an independent day school for girls in Saint Peter Port, Guernsey. The school was founded on 10 October 1872 in order to provide academic education to girls on the island and was modelled after Cheltenham Ladies' College. As a member of the Girls' Schools Association (GSA), it is a public school in the British sense of the term.
The school has around 400 girls aged 11 to 18, and provides a coeducational sixth form in partnership with the nearby Elizabeth College. An associated preparatory school, Melrose, was opened in 1949 on the same site as the school. As a selective school, prospective pupils must pass an entrance exam to be offered a place, although the school accepts pupils from a wide ability range. The school charges £4,670 per term, with three terms per academic year, as of 2023/2024.
