About the school

RMS has an unusual and distinguished history. One of the oldest girls’ schools in the country, RMS was founded in 1788 by Chevalier Ruspini to educate the daughters of Freemasons unable through death, illness or disability to support their families. The School started out with fifteen pupils and a matron in Somers Place in East London and moved twice within London and finally to Rickmansworth in 1934. In 1978 RMS became an open, fee-paying school accepting girls from all backgrounds and all faiths, the vast majority of whom have no links with Freemasonry.

Let us identify a number of school options for your children

  • We will help you to identify your family priorities and find the best potential schools fit.
  • We will approach those schools on your behalf
  • We work with you through the full process, help with admission procedures and stay with you until your children finish their boarding school education.

Academic life

In the first three years, we offer a broad range of subjects including the arts, humanities, computing and PE. From Year 7, Science is taught as individual disciplines – Biology, Chemistry and Physics – and our girls will also learn French and Spanish as part of the normal curriculum, having the option to replace one of these languages with Mandarin or Latin from Year 8. In Year 9 our curriculum becomes further personalised. Subjects the pupils develop an affinity with can be explored further. Pupils can choose three subjects from Music, Drama, Food and Nutrition, Design Technology, Art and Textiles to spend twice as much time studying as they would in Year 7. At GCSE level, it is compulsory for our pupils to take English Language and English Literature, Mathematics, the Sciences (either Biology, Chemistry and Physics as separate subjects or Combined Science). Alongside these, pupils choose ‘optional’ subjects which align to their interests. Subjects on offer include: Fine Art, Textiles, Computer Science, Drama, Food and Nutrition, Geography, History, Music, PE, Business Studies, Design Technology and Religious Studies, French, Spanish, Latin, Mandarin, Astronomy, Greek, Health and Social Care.

Sport and culture

Sport is an important aspect of life at RMS. Our students are encouraged to participate and to improve their performance, no matter what their starting point may be, and success at every level is celebrated. We are fortunate to have an enviable array of facilities, including an all-weather pitch, sports hall, fitness suite and indoor swimming pool, golf course as well as 300 acres of parkland to explore. We field competitive teams in Netball, Hockey, Swimming, Gymnastics, Tennis, Rounders and Athletics, and also have links with local sports clubs and professionals to support those interested in Golf, Badminton, Kickboxing, Skiing and Sailing.
