Boarding Pathway to Rugby School

Pupils joining Aysgarth in Form 3 or 4 (Years 6 or 7) have the unique opportunity to sit a single entrance exam and gain an unconditional offer to continue their education at Rugby School.

This pathway reflects the confidence Rugby places in Aysgarth to prepare pupils for senior school success. Our boarding model is designed to support this journey, ensuring children thrive academically, socially, and personally.

Together with Rugby, we have created a seamless progression that makes planning for senior school straightforward. Families benefit from simplified admissions, expert preparation, and exclusive considerations, including financial advantages.
