RGS Junior Schools
Reigate Grammar School is proud to have three successful prep schools educating children from 2 ½ to 11 years old.
Each school shares the core ethos and values of RGS while maintaining their own distinctive styles.
- Chinthurst
- Reigate St Mary’s
- Micklefield
Chinthurst
Located between Walton on the Hill and Tadworth, Chinthurst offers easy access to the M25 and is close to Tadworth train station with its regular links to London. The school is known for its exciting teaching, warm atmosphere and focus on fun. Their award-winning Wellbeing at Heart framework builds resilience, supports an ethos of kindness, and helps the children to become well-rounded individuals. As a result, the children are confident and happy, and their academic outcomes are excellent. They move on to senior school as enthusiastic learners and caring individuals ready to grasp opportunities and overcome challenges along the way. This is very much a reflection of the Chinthurst spirit. The school was named Independent School of the Year for Sporting Achievement in 2022 in recognition of their pioneering sports programme.
Reigate St Mary’s (RSM)
Situated on a 15-acre site near Reigate town centre and just a few minutes walk from RGS, RSM offers a broad and progressive curriculum that helps the children to excel academically in a kind and caring environment. The grounds offer plenty of opportunities for outdoor learning and fun and a broad extracurricular programme and wraparound care provision extend the children experience further. Teaching is based on critical thinking and collaboration and there is a whole-school emphasis on sustainability, wellbeing and strong relationships. Their award-winning Education for Social Responsibility programme focuses on the core values they will need to become agile thinkers and change makers of the future.
Micklefield
Joining the RGS family in 2024, Micklefield is a well-established and successful prep school located close to Reigate train station. It provides a warm and caring educational experience based on a strong set of values that sit at the heart of everything they do. Kindness, Resilience, Respect and Responsibility are woven into every aspect of school life, and this helps to prepare the children for the many opportunities and challenges they will encounter at senior school and in life beyond. Close relationships with families, an imaginative approach to learning, strong pastoral care and a supportive community result in happy, confident and well-rounded children who excel academically.
