Why Join RGS Surrey Hills at 16+
Choosing where to study for Sixth Form is one of the most important decisions a family will make. For international students, it is more than academics — it is about finding a place that feels secure, supportive, and full of opportunity. At RGS Surrey Hills, Sixth Form is where independence grows, ambitions take shape, and futures begin to feel real.
A clear pathway to top universities
Our Sixth Form offers both A Levels and the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme, giving students the flexibility to choose the route that best suits their strengths and future goals.
Small class sizes mean teaching is focused, personal, and ambitious. Students are known as individuals — not numbers — and are supported to achieve places at leading UK and global universities.
From medicine and engineering to business, law and the creative industries, students leave RGS Surrey Hills with direction and confidence.
A boarding experience that feels like home
Our boarding community is warm, structured, and genuinely supportive. Students live alongside peers from the UK and around the world, building friendships quickly and naturally. House staff know each student well, providing both care and guidance — whether that’s help with managing study time, settling into a new culture, or simply having someone to talk to at the end of the day. This is not just accommodation. It is a community.
A global outlook, grounded in confidence
RGS Surrey Hills brings together students from a wide range of countries and backgrounds. That diversity is part of daily life — in the classroom, in boarding houses, and across the co-curricular programme. Students develop the confidence to communicate, collaborate and lead in an international environment. At the same time, they benefit from being part of the wider RGS family of schools, connecting them to a broader academic network and shared ethos.
Outstanding support for international students
Joining a new school — and a new country — can feel like a significant step. We make that transition smooth and well-supported.
From the moment a place is offered, students are guided through:
– Subject selection and academic preparation
– Visa and guardianship processes
– Arrival and settling-in support
– Ongoing pastoral care and academic mentoring
Our focus is simple: every student should feel confident, settled, and ready to succeed.
Beyond the classroom
Sixth Form at RGS Surrey Hills is not just about academic outcomes. Students take on leadership roles, develop new interests, and build skills that go far beyond exams — whether through sport, creative arts, outdoor education, or global programmes.
This balance is what prepares them not just for university, but for life beyond it.
A location that offers the best of both worlds
Set in the Surrey Hills, the school provides a safe, green and focused environment — ideal for study and personal development. At the same time, London is within easy reach, giving students access to one of the world’s leading cultural and academic cities. Close to both Heathrow and Gatwick airports, RGS Surrey Hills is well-positioned for international travel.
