Methodist Girls’ School is a school located along Logan Road, off Anson Road, Penang. It was also known as the Anglo-Chinese Girls’ School, or ACGS.
The Anglo-Chinese Girls’ School traces its history back to 1892, when the wife of Reverend Pykett, Mrs G.F. Pykett began conducting classes for girls in Northam Road. From there, the school shifted several times, as enrolment increased. It moved to Acheen Street in 1900, then to Burmah Road in 1903, and then to Penang Road in 1907.
The Anglo-Chinese Girls School finally bought the land on which the present building was erected in 1914. From there on, the school underwent expansions over the years, as more wings were added to it.
Currently the school’s enrollment stands at 654 students with 45 academic staffs and 9 supporting staffs.
