Talented Girls’ Hockey, Netball and Cricket player, Fynn celebrated after achieving all Grades 9 and 8.

We asked Fynn about her experience here at RGS Worcester and what she is looking forward to next, "Teachers have been so helpful, the support clinics are so useful. Anytime of day teachers are there to be supportive. I'm so looking forward to sixth form having subjects that tailor to me."

Twins Harry and Izzy also earned 20 GCSEs, with an impressive 12 at Grades 9 and 8. Meanwhile, twins Leyla and Yasmina Rashid excelled by securing 20 GCSEs between them, including 14 at Grade 9 and five at Grade 8.

Congratulations to Hannah, Isabelle and Ellen Mae on achieving a straight set of Grade 9s in their chosen GCSE subjects.

RGS Worcester pupils, their families and staff are celebrating after Year Eleven pupils achieved another set of excellent GCSE examination results. With dedication, determination, and a commitment to excellence, the pupils of RGS Worcester have achieved superb success in their GCSE results this year.

John Pitt, Headmaster, commented, “I am so pleased for our Year Eleven pupils that they have performed so well and set themselves up for the Sixth Form. We were delighted with our GCSE results last year, but this Year group has set the bar even higher and are also our largest ever Year Eleven cohort. Many congratulations to them and to their parents. Well done to our teachers who have guided them so successfully with their expertise and passion for their subjects.”

Congratulations to all the pupils at RGS Worcester.

We are so incredibly proud and wish her all the best in her future studies.

As a reward for completing Lower School, Year Eight pupils enjoyed a day at the University of Worcester's Lakeside Campus. The day was designed to allow pupils to work through a series of challenges with their friends, giving plenty of opportunity for team building activities and taking part in both land and water activities.

We recently hosted a mock election to give our pupils a taste of the UK's General Election, this event was all about fun and learning! 🗳️

We mirrored the Worcester constituency parties: Conservative, Labour, Liberal Democrats, Green, and Reform Party. Each party had a Lower Sixth leader, and we looked for candidates from every year group to join them.

Every Year group acted as a ‘constituency’, electing its own ‘Member of Parliament’. If a party didn't have a candidate in a year group, that was okay—it mirrored the real UK system! For instance, Year Seven pupils chose from Year Seven candidates.

The election commenced with hustings during assemblies where each Lower Sixth party leader (and any candidates who wished to) delivered a three-minute speech on their party's policies.

Embarking on an incredible journey to Oxford University with our Year Ten pupils! 🌟📚

The evening was a chance to thank pupils for their dedication to RGS Rowing over the season and to hand out prizes for exceptional contributions.

Congratulations to those whose achievements this term were recognised through the Awards!
