Rugby School
Rugby's principal activity is the education and care of its pupils. Its primary objective to develop rounded individuals who are also useful members of the community. All its assets, its income and expenditure are directed to that purpose. A famous independent school, it preserves many traditions including that of constant innovation. It values academic excellence while striving for distinction in every sphere. According to The Good Schools' Guide, it is the ‘number one choice among all the co-ed boarding schools’.
Rugby, probably more than any other school in the land, focusses on helping our students become ‘whole ‘ people – people who are multi-faceted in their interests, talents and ambitions. Here, we do not just say ‘ the whole person is the whole point’, we live it, every hour of every day.
