RGSGQ offers a traditional British curriculum that teaches the English National Curriculum from Early Years to Year 9. In Year 10 and Year 11 we provide a range of IGCSE and BTEC subjects to prepare our Year 12 pupils to study AS levels and BTEC subjects. This allows them to gain access to universities across the globe. Our smaller pupil to teacher ratio enables greater teacher contact time to allow our children to flourish.
Learn MoreEarly Years:
Preschool and Reception
The friendly, welcoming atmosphere of our Pre-Prep Department ensures that children enjoy their first taste of school. We understand that happy children learn effectively if they feel safe and secured, in a well-planned and stimulating environment in which to grow. We feel it is important for children to find a place where they can feel special, have lots of fun, make friends and grow and learn in confidence.
Primary:
Year 1 to 6
Our holistic educational approach develops respect, tolerance, and understanding, allowing each child to achieve academic achievement while also developing the skills and aptitudes necessary to adapt and prosper in a fast-changing world.
Secondary:
Year 7 to 11
Secondary school students are taught by individual specialized subject teachers and classes are more focused on formal subject-based learning. Students continue to benefit from a broad and balanced curriculum including mathematical, scientific and technological, linguistic, human and social, creative and literary, physical and moral and spiritual learning areas.
Sixth Form:
AS Level
AS qualifications are accepted by universities around the world and will prepare students for further study and then the start of their careers.

Our very own Principal, Mrs Fiona Scott, recently attended the Heads Forum hosted by RGS Guildford Dubai @rgsguildforddxb. The event brought together school leaders from across the region for a day of collaboration, meaningful dialogue, and shared learning. It was a valuable opportunity to explore best practices in teaching, learning, and leadership, and to connect with fellow educators from diverse international contexts. Events like these highlight the strength of the RGSG Global family and our shared commitment to delivering exceptional education worldwide.

Dressed as young scientists, our Primary students proudly showcased their experiments at the Science Fair. From electrical circuits lighting up bulbs to erupting mini volcanoes, their creativity was endless. At RGSGQ, opportunities like these are invaluable to us as they not only ignite curiosity and a passion for science, but they also help build confidence as students present to parents, teachers, and fellow students.

Meet Khalifa, our Year 9 student who took part in the Hamonde House Sustainability Competition by creating a powerful visual representation of one of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. Inspired by Van Gogh’s Starry Night, Khalifa’s artwork highlights the harmful impact of pollution on our environment—a creative call for action and awareness.

Year 9 Still Life Project ~ Our talented Year 9 students have embarked on a mini Still Life project, exploring the power of graphite through detailed sketching and shading techniques. This introductory unit serves as a stepping stone towards the demands of GCSE Art & Design, focusing on observational drawing, tonal range, and composition. Taking inspiration from the legendary Pablo Picasso, students are not only developing their technical skills, but also beginning to think creatively about how objects can be arranged and interpreted through a more expressive lens. As part of this project, students will present their process and outcomes in a PowerPoint presentation, showcasing their journey from initial studies to final compositions. This exercise aims to build confidence in presenting artwork and articulating their creative decisions—key components of the GCSE course. We are excited to see how this foundation will support their artistic growth as they move towards Key Stage 4.
