At Rosebery, pupils are organised into different houses: Malala, Elizabeth, Pankhurst and Curie.

When a new pupil joins she is placed in a house, remaining part of it throughout her time at the school.

The houses names changed in 2016 to that of inspirational women.

All girls in the lower school, Years 7–11, wear a uniform consisting of a kilt and navy blue jumper bearing a red primrose in recognition of the family name of Lord Rosebery.

Previously brown and pink were used because this was the colour of Lord Rosebery's Derby uniform colours [citation needed] In 2006, Rosebery was awarded specialist status for Mathematics and ICT.
