We have not found a published offer date, so we show the date by which families must accept.

The sixth-form admissions page says every sixth-form applicant sits an RGS Worcester entrance test, while the admissions policy says the English and maths papers apply at every entry point except the sixth form, so we have not listed a sixth-form test until we have checked it with the school. Some admissions pages still carry September 2026 dates beside the September 2027 ones; this page shows only the current round.
