RGS Family of Schools delighted with latest ISI Inspection
The RGS Worcester Family of Schools is proud to have received an exceptional Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) inspection (January 2025), including highlighting a ‘Significant Strength’ of the school.
Our ‘Significant Strength’ recognition was achieved as a result of the schools’ outstanding leadership, exceptional pastoral care, and steadfast focus on each pupil’s development.
Inspectors praised the positive learning environment across the Schools and noted the strong, supportive relationships between pupils and staff. They highlighted that pupils are confident and well-rounded, excelling academically while benefiting from a nurturing atmosphere that supports their personal growth and well-being.
The ISI inspection report commended RGS Worcester’s commitment to providing an outstanding education that balances academic excellence with personal development. From the Early Years at RGS Springfield and RGS The Grange through to the Senior years at RGS Worcester, pupils thrive in a culture that encourages both academic achievement and character building. This approach ensures that RGS pupils not only achieve excellent examination results but also grow into resilient, empathetic individuals prepared for future success.
Only a small number of HMC (Headmasters’ and Headmistresses’ Conference) schools have received a ‘Significant Strength’ commendation. This honour places RGS Worcester in a distinguished category, reinforcing its reputation as one of the leading Co-educational day schools in the West Midlands. It affirms that RGS Worcester is among the very best independent schools, offering a holistic education that stands out on a national level.
Mr John Pitt, Executive Head of The RGS Worcester Family of Schools expressed immense pride in the School community for this achievement and its significance, saying, “We are absolutely delighted with our latest ISI report, including the ‘Significant Strength’ highlight which is a reflection of the strength of our leadership team, the dedication of our teachers, and the enthusiasm of our pupils. At RGS Worcester, we strive to nurture every aspect of a young person’s development, and it’s wonderful to see that effort recognised at the highest level. This result affirms our commitment to academic excellence and exceptional pastoral care, and we will continue to provide an environment where every child can flourish”.
