What the school inspection says

Date of report
2022
Verdict *
Good
“Leaders, staff and pupils embody the school vision that ‘at Rugby High School we set heights in our heart’ ... Pupils are active members of the inclusive school community ... There really is something for everyone, from chamber choir to debating and from football to poetry ... Students learn a challenging curriculum … Leaders listen to pupils, for instance through an active and involved school council ... [and] support staff with relevant training. However, this has not fully addressed the need for all teachers to ensure all pupils are learning the curriculum well in lessons. Leaders know this. They have formulated and are implementing clear plans to further develop staff.”
