Welcome to the website of the Royal Grammar School, Guildford. RGS Guildford celebrated its 500th anniversary last year and has a long and distinguished history of educating boys in this region. It is renowned for its academic standards which place it among the very finest schools in the country but it also offers a rich provision of extra-curricular activities so that our pupils experience as exciting and diverse an education as possible. We are also proud of our sense of community at the RGS. Our latest ISI inspection report commented on the ‘striking culture of mutual support’ at the RGS and this caring community is something we hold very dear. I hope that the information contained in this website is of interest and I look forward to welcoming you to the School at some stage in the future.

Headmaster
I am pleased to announce that the Royal Grammar School has been awarded an Independent School Award 2010 for Outstanding Community/Public Benefit Initiative. This accolade has been earned as a result of the RGS’ commitment to engage with our local community through the many educational schemes involving our local primary schools and, in particular, for our Primary Schools' Tudor Experience Day. We are delighted that the hard work of so many people at the RGS has been recognised in this way.

At this time of year, the media is dominated by the annual fight for university places and it is clear that competition for places has never been more intense. The top courses at the top universities are heavily oversubscribed with talented applicants; the financial penalties in place mean the institutions have even less flexibility in terms of the number of places they can offer. It is in this light that the recent offers achieved by the Upper Sixth Form boys are all the more impressive.
