Firmly established over many years, Ringwood’s excellent reputation is well-deserved. It is a thriving, highly successful school and a fantastic place for young people to learn and develop.

We have high aspirations for every student and we strive to ensure that all students achieve their full potential through a clear focus on learning and achievement in a supportive environment. Students only get one chance and we take our role in providing the best possible opportunities for them very seriously. We are proud of all our students’ achievements and we take time to celebrate these whether they are academic, sporting, artistic or dramatic.

In 2011 Ringwood School was one of the first schools in the country to become a ‘Teaching School’. This prestigious status allows us to work collaboratively with many other schools and gives us access to an exceptionally wide range of opportunities. This is important for us as it helps us to develop our classroom practice and to continually improve the experience of students in lessons. Great teaching has delivered GCSE results that are consistently well above the Hampshire and national average. At ‘A’ Level performance is very strong; we are currently ranked in the top 5% of post-16 providers across the country by ALPS (A-Level Progress Score). Our Sixth Form is full of enrichment and opportunity and has been classed as ‘outstanding’ in our last two inspections.
