Founded in 1567, Rugby School is the UK’s leading co-educational true full-boarding and day school for pupils aged 13-18. We are a 7 days-a-week school with more than 200 years of House experience and a strong boarding ethos.

Rugby, probably more than any other school in the land, focuses on helping our students become ‘whole’ people – people who are multi-faceted in their interests, talents, and ambitions.

We recognise that the three strands of academic, co-curricular and pastoral are inherently and inextricably linked. It is the successful combining of these three strands which is at the heart of our “Whole Person Whole Point” ethos.

Our academic results are outstanding, with students consistently securing places at the top-ranking universities in the UK, and other students going on to prestigious universities abroad. Additionally, our renowned co-curricular programme offers more than 200 options and more than 28 sports with emphasis on both of excellence and participation.

Rugby's principal activity is the education and care of its students. Our primary objective is to develop rounded individuals who are also useful members of the community. All of our assets, income, and expenditure are directed to that purpose.

Rugby School Group is one of the UK’s most respected and forward-looking educational families, led by the historic Rugby School – the UK’s leading co-educational true full-boarding and day school for pupils aged 13-18.
