Royal Grammar School

Who we are

RGS is an all-boys grammar school with a co-educational sixth form.  We have high academic standards and an impressive range of co-curricular activities.  

Our culture and values

The School values are: Respect - Integrity - Aspiration

Staff at RGS are dynamic, talented and innovative.  We have an excellent reputation in preparing colleagues for the next stages of their career whether as teachers or support staff and will find a wealth of opportunities available here with regard to their professional development.  We ask that all staff choose and sign up to something that genuinely interests and excites them and that they work on this throughout the course of the academic year.  We currently have staff undertaking NPQs, staff involved in our Challenge Senior and Middle Leaders courses and approximately 45 staff involved in our Strategy Groups which are designed to feed into our school priorities.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

The Royal Grammar School is committed to equal opportunities for all its students and staff, irrespective of race, colour or nationality, gender, marital status, family circumstances, religion, sexual orientation, age or disability. There will be no discrimination on these grounds, or for any other reasons which cannot be shown to be justified. Students applying for admission to the school and candidates for posts at the school will be treated according to school policies on admission and recruitment and with regard to British and European legislation.  Attention will be paid to the importance of equal opportunities education in both the formal and informal curriculum and our curriculum will be reviewed at frequent intervals to ensure that this policy is reflected in practice. The Headmaster is responsible to the Governors for monitoring this policy.   The school operates an Equality Cohesion Policy.  The School is a non-smoking establishment.
