St. Augustine Girls' High School is one of five Presbyterian secondary schools in Trinidad and Tobago. It was founded in 1950 for girls between 11–19.[1] It is a seven-year school that is famous for its well-rounded, academically inclined students.
Mathematics and English Language are elected in forms four and five and in form 6, Caribbean Studies and Communication Studies are mandatory while others are selected by the student. The curriculum in forms four and five is geared toward preparation for CSEC. The curriculum in form six is catered toward preparation for CAPE.
The school is one of few prestige schools to offer Physical Education from forms one to five. It is one of the highest all girls school in Trinidad and Tobago with a required percentage of 96-100%, thus making it hard for many to qualify.
