  • Site Maintenance Support with Security and Traffic Management
    IAPS co-educational day school, 3 - 11 Appointment of Site Maintenance Support with Security and Traffic Management From September 2017 1 Reigate St Mary's is an independent day school for approximately 350 boys and girls aged from rising 3 years to 11 years. It was formed in 1950 by the merger of the preparatory department of Reigate Grammar School and the choristers of St Mary's Church. In 2003, the school returned to its former status as the nursery and junior department of Reigate Grammar School. In 2017 Chinthurst School joined the RGS group of schools. The school is set in 15 acres of beautiful parkland and sports fields in the centre of Reigate, a pleasant market town in Surrey. Proximity to Gatwick airport, the M25 and rail links to London make this a popular area for parents with young families. Reigate St Mary's is one of a small number of schools with a traditional choir of boys and lay clerks led by the school Head of Choral Music. The RGS Godfrey Searle Choir sings regularly in school and church services, and performs in concerts throughout the UK and Europe, with music from the 15th to the 21st centuries and texts in several languages. The Godfrey Searle Choir Trust offers a choral scholarship to each chorister which can be subsequently transferred to Reigate Grammar School. The majority of pupils leave the school at age eleven and transfer to Reigate Grammar School, however, a small number each year move on to other senior schools which have included Dunottar, Box Hill School, Hurstpierpoint College, Worth School and Ardingly College.

  • What Is School Direct? What Are the Routes?
    What is School Direct? School Direct is a programme whereby schools recruit trainees directly and select them to train and work within their partnership schools. Schools, therefore, have more control over the quality of training that is provided and how it is delivered. We guarantee an interview for any relevant post in a partnership school for those who are successful on the programme with us. What are the routes? There are two routes into School Direct: Salaried and non- salaried. The salaried route is aimed at graduates with at least 3 years work experience and is an employment based route into teaching. The non-salaried route is open to all graduates funded by tuition fees paid by the graduate. Our School Direct programmes will lead you to gaining a PGCE in conjunction with our partnership universities. Who is in our partnership? The Warwick School (Lead School) (www.warwick.surrey.sch.uk) Reigate School (http://www.reigate-school.surrey.sch.uk) Oakwood School (http://www.oakwood.surrey.sch.uk) Reigate College (http://www.reigate.ac.uk/) Royal Alexandra and Albert School (http://www.raa-school.co.uk/) University of Sussex (http://www.sussex.ac.uk/education) University of Brighton (http://about.brighton.ac.uk/education/) St. Mary’s University College, Twickenham (http://www.smuc.ac.uk/education-theology-and- leadership/) We have a very successful and long-standing tradition of working with these schools and universities and have been fortunate enough to offer permanent employment to several of our PGCE student teachers in the past. What kind of training can we offer you? The model for training that we will follow will primarily focus on training in the classroom as well as having regular focused training days delivered by outstanding practitioners.

  • Weekly News Bulletin
    Weekly News Bulletin Friday 6 September 2019 Headmaster's Roundup It is an absolute joy to have the children back in school. Although we get a lot done during the holidays when rooms are empty, the school comes alive again when the children return and what a great first two days they have had. The excitement on their faces as they met up with old friends, were introduced to their new teachers and enjoyed the new equipment and play space was a pleasure to see and there is a great positive buzz around the whole school. Thank you to FOSMA who kindly donated the new trim trail in the playground that the children have been enjoying - there is a constant queue! We have three new members of staff this term and a new appointment which you will already be aware of. Miss Alex Brotzel and Mr Felix Tiley join us as GAP students and Mrs Rachel Faulkner joins the marketing team. Mr Hollands has now retired and Miss 'Maria' Ibaceta has joined the teaching staff as our MFL Coordinator and teacher for children right down to the Early Years. During the holidays you will have received a communication from me sharing with you how well our senior school students had done in their public examinations. I am delighted that our former RSM pupils successfully performed slightly better than the very high average RGS student. At GCSE, 85% of their grades were 9-7 (Formerly A** - A) and at A Level, 65% of their grades were A* or A. It is nice to confirm once again that our typical RSM cohort more than hold their own at our senior school, reassuring us that the foundations t we put in place at RSM really do prepare them for both secondary schooling and beyond.

Variation of condition 8 of permission 03/00711/F which states: No more than 1200 students are permitted on site at any one time. All plans in this report have been reproduced, are not to scale, and are for illustrative purposes only. The original plans should be viewed/referenced for detail. This application is referred following the deferral from the 27th November Committee Meeting, to secure additional information. SUMMARY This application proposes the variation of condition 8 attached to a 2003 planning application for extension works to the College, which imposed a limit of 1200 pupils being on the site at any time. In reality it appears possible that more than 1200 pupils may already, on occasion, be on the site and that as a result of changes to the courses on offer, the way in which students’ study and student numbers that this number could be exceeded in the future and this application seeks to address this fact. The application originally proposed the removal of the condition, but it has been agreed with the applicant that a new condition be imposed with a limit of 1900 pupils – calculated to be sufficient to accommodate anticipated student numbers resulting from curriculum and student number changes.
