Welcome from the Heads of Schools

Welcome to Reigate Grammar School Riyadh – Prep School, Qurtubah Campus

It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to Reigate Grammar School Riyadh’s Prep School, proudly situated on our Qurtubah Campus. Our school is home to a truly special international community where families and educators from all over the world come together to create an environment of warmth, ambition, and shared purpose.

Reigate Grammar School Riyadh builds on the rich heritage of our sister school, Reigate Grammar School UK (The Sunday Times School of the Year 2025), while proudly embracing the vibrancy and opportunity of our Riyadh context. We do not seek to transplant a 350-year-old British school, but rather to translate the very best of that tradition—its values, academic rigour, and pastoral heart—into something new, dynamic, and relevant for our families here in the Kingdom.

At the heart of our school is a deep commitment to pastoral care. Every child who walks through our doors is seen, known, and valued. We do not ask children to fit into a box; instead, we meet them where they are, celebrate who they are, and support them as they grow into the best versions of themselves. At RGS Riyadh, our children do not simply “fit in” to school—they belong.

Academically, we uphold the highest standards of British education, delivered with passion, creativity, and ambition. But just as importantly, we create space for children to explore, inquire, and develop a lifelong love of learning. Our pupils are not only learners, they’re explorers, collaborators, and global citizens. Through a well-rounded education, enriched by co-curricular opportunities and global perspectives, we prepare our children not just for senior school, but for life.

I warmly invite you to visit our Qurtubah Campus, meet our wonderful staff and students, and experience first-hand the vibrant, inclusive, and happy environment that has flourished here. Whether you are a prospective parent, pupil, or member of staff, you will find a school community that is grounded in tradition, shaped by purpose, and excited by the future.

We look forward to welcoming you to RGS Riyadh Prep School.

Very best wishes,
Stephen Deady
Head of Prep School
