Positive & Negative
The staff and Students are very rude and when i was in year 7 all the students were horrible. The teachers are very strict and gave you a C1 and detention often. I will say, the food at RGS is very good and the dinner ladies put lots of effort into making it.Education wise, its good but i advise going to a place where they are nice to you.
My experience at school
Whilst the school building and base curriculum are pretty good this school has always had an issue teachers or the lack of them especially within the science department this means that for alot of students our education is broken up and we struggle to get the grades needed to pass
cause for concern.
one star is too much already this school has very rude teachers and they don’t do anything about racism especially and they use the excuse ‘it was a misunderstanding’. teachers don’t care about anything other than themselves and are selfish and rude and pick favourites.
Appalling behaviour across the school
The behaviour of the students was shocking! On a school trip, they made fun of another school because of their name. This was not just one student however, all students shared common values and were willing to share their opinion no matter how rude it was.

review for reading girls school
not fair for different school years, staff shortages,
Don’t recommend
I’m a senior student now. The school was great for a while, however less than 10 teachers stayed after the last academic year, and that is no exaggeration. Learning is relatively poor standard, and the staff on the most part are uncaring towards students besides their grades. The senior staff (principal, vice principal etc) are disconnected from students, barely knowing which year group we’re in when we approach them. All in all its declined drastically in quality in the past 2-3 years.
Reading girls school
Good school but lack of good teachers and at time can be a toxic environment
I've been there from year 7 until the end
Overall, it has improved since the beginning, but some teachers decided to single me out for reasons I still don't know, as if I was worse than everyone in my class. Other teachers on the other hand were absolutely amazing
Good school
It’s a nice school and very high quality teaching, although I only give it 4 out of 5 because the school environment can get very toxic, I think this is down to only having girls there. But overall it is such an underrated school compared to others in reading( I’d know because I’ve been to 4 of them) it was definitely the best out of the 4 :)
School
It’s a good school, hardly any fights and they attain good grades- although some of the teachers use and abuse their power
