Inclusive and Empowering Environment:
As one of the few all-girls Sixth Forms in the area, we are uniquely positioned to create a supportive learning environment where young women can excel academically and personally.

Broad Curriculum Offerings:
A diverse range of A-Level subjects, vocational courses, and pathways including the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) & the Duke of Edinburgh Award, which will ensure students have the flexibility to explore their interests and ambitions.

Leadership and Personal Development:
From roles like Student Senior Leadership Team, School Council and Peer Mentors to the extensive enrichment and volunteering opportunities, students have multiple avenues to develop leadership skills and contribute to the community.

Comprehensive Careers Guidance:
Our dedicated careers team works closely with students, providing support for university applications, apprenticeships, and career planning through workshops, mentoring, and partnerships with local businesses.

STEM:
Our STE(A)M initiative (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) recognises the importance of creativity across these subjects and throughout the curriculum. At RGS our aim is to prepare our students for life beyond the classroom. With an increasing demand on STE(A)M skillsets within industry, we aim to motivate and inspire pupils further to explore the rewarding opportunities available through STE(A)M. Students will be encouraged to enter STE(A)M competitions, to engage in groups and clubs for further learning and to imagine the possibilities of a career in areas once not so accessible.
