Rugby High School named as one of the best state secondary schools in the West Midlands

Rugby High School has been named as one of the best state secondary schools in the West Midlands, according to The Sunday Times Parent Power guide 2026, published on Friday, 5th December.

The school was tenth on the list for schools in the West Midlands and 88th in the country, rising 21 places from the previous year - a fantastic achievement.

Our Head Teacher, Mr Grady, said: “This is just a wonderful example of how RHS goes from strength to strength.  The experience and outcomes for our students continues to improve, and to have moved so far up this list of highly achieving schools is testament to the great skills of the teachers and staff at RHS, the support of their families, and the aspiration and hard work of our students.  We could not be prouder!”

This is the 33rd edition of The Sunday Times Parent Power Guide, which highlights the strongest performers in exam results and overall achievement. The Parent Power Guide is widely acknowledged as the most authoritative survey of the country’s top schools, holding a database of more than 2,000 schools.
