Rugby High School
About Rugby High School
Rugby High School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, and its strongest academic story lies in its sixth-form performance. In the 2023/24 academic year, students achieved an average grade of A- per entry, with points per entry reaching 46. 05. The school’s best three A-levels averaged a B+ grade, and 37. 8% of entries were graded at AAB or higher. The value-added score sits at 0. 05, with a progress banding of Average, meaning students typically achieve in line with expectations given their prior attainment. This is a selective girls’ grammar school, so the baseline is already high, and the results reflect that. The Attainment 8 score at KS4 is 10. 9, which is strong, though the school does not report Progress 8 data. The EBacc average point score is 0. 3, and no pupils entered the EBacc combination, which is unusual for a grammar school and may reflect a curriculum that prioritises breadth over the EBacc suite.
