RGS The Grange
School summary
Part of the RGS family of schools in Worcester, The Grange is a small, non-denominational independent school of around 345 pupils, founded in 1996. Its modest size means a close-knit community where children are well known to staff, and the breadth of its scholarship offering signals genuine investment in a wide range of talents. The school welcomes pupils from early years through to senior entry, with 11+ admission available for families considering the move at that stage.

Teaching & academics
RGS The Grange is inspected by the ISI rather than Ofsted, in keeping with its independent status. Academic scholarships are offered alongside awards in music, drama, art and sport, which suggests achievement is recognised across both classroom and co-curricular life. With a relatively small roll, teaching tends to take place in an environment where individual progress can be closely monitored.

Beyond the classroom

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, all-through independent school under Headmaster Mr Gareth Hughes, suited to families who value a close community and a broad range of talents nurtured alongside academics.
That’s where Passmate comes in. Tutoring is the most effective thing in a child’s preparation - a well-tutored child can outperform the vast majority of their peers. Passmate works alongside your tutor, not instead of them: it learns how your child thinks, finds the gaps, and shows the tutor exactly where to spend each session - so the limited time you have lands on what actually decides a place.
Works alongside your child’s tutor - not instead of them.
