Change a Life
Bursaries have the power to change lives. Your donation will enable the Foundation to provide means-tested financial support for pupils and families who would otherwise be unable to afford an RGS education.
Since before 1291, RGS Worcester has proudly educated the children of the City. In its capacity as the Grammar School and subsequently under the Grant Maintained and Assisted Places schemes, thousands of young people over the years have experienced an RGS education for free.
In one way or another therefore, throughout history, RGS has always been a School for the City of Worcester; a School for all. Those government subsidised financial assistance schemes ended some years ago and the School has been successfully independent for nearly 40 years. Social inclusivity is at the heart of our heritage and is central to our future vision to widen access to the School. We are committed to RGS Worcester being a place for any young person who would thrive here, irrespective of social or economic background.
Since 2012, more than £5.4m has supported life-changing bursaries at RGS. Currently there are 100 pupils in receipt of bursary assistance. We would not be where we are today if it were not for the support of our donors from all corners of the RGS community.
Our ambition is to have 1 in 4 pupils attending RGS thanks to bursarial support, returning to the level of assistance available at the School under the Assisted Places scheme. We need your help to realise this ambition. In giving a gift to the RGS bursary appeal, you will change a young person’s life and enable them to fulfil their potential.
