Welcome to Rainham School for Girls
Rainham School for Girls represents a culture of high aspiration, high expectation and success. Our aim is to provide an outstanding learning experience for all students within a safe, disciplined and caring environment.
Students from Year 7 to 9 took part in the SSG Orienteering competition at Capstone Country park. Our students took part in 2 courses which required excellent map reading skills and fast paced running. Successes were - In Year 7 where Hallie and Evie finished 1st. In Year 8 Olivia and Kitti finished 1st and 3rd was Hayley and Bella. In Year 9 Sofia and Mia finished 3rd. As a school we finished 1st overall. Congratulations to all students that took part.

Our Year 7 and 8 students cracked secret codes to reveal the colours for their colour-by-numbers pictures. A brilliant mix of problem solving, creativity and teamwork! Cryptography Club is open to Year 7 & 8 every Thursday lunchtime in L12 with Miss Burton and Miss White. New members always welcome!

A massive shout-out to our incredible Year 10 students who have just returned from their work experience week! 🌟 We have been overwhelmed by the glowing feedback from employers across the community. Whether they were in offices, schools, workshops, or retail spaces, our students demonstrated exceptional professionalism, curiosity, and initiative. It’s been wonderful to see them step out of their comfort zones, develop new skills, and represent our school with such maturity. From tackling complex tasks to showing up with a positive “can-do” attitude, they have truly made us proud. A huge thank you to all the local businesses and mentors who hosted our students and provided such invaluable insights into the world of work. Well done, Year 10—you’ve shown exactly what you’re capable of! 👏💼✨ We would also like to extend our pride at the Year 10 students who were in school as normal this week. They applied themselves fantastically well and we are extremely proud of them too. #Year10 #WorkExperience #FutureLeaders #ProudSchool #CareerReady

What another amazing success from one of our students winning GOLD and the title of World Champions in their division at the All Star Worlds Cheerleading Championships in Florida. Competing with her team, they went against 67 teams in the semi-finals, and secured a spot in the finals day against 34 teams from around the world. The girls’ team spirit, hard work & determination paid off as they took home the title of World Champions!!

Congratulations to Jessica, Violet and Abbigale who have been working hard on achieving their dreams! Excellence doesn’t happen by chance — it’s built through ambition, effort, and seizing every opportunity. ✨ Our Year 12 students are a powerful example of what high aspirations can achieve. Including a week-long residential at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) in Grenoble — to securing a place at Hertford College, University of Oxford Summer School, and taking on a curriculum enhancement programme at the University of Bath Summer School across a range of subjects… this is ambition in motion. These experiences go beyond the classroom — shaping thinkers, innovators, and future leaders. To those aiming high: keep going. The opportunities are there — and this is what it looks like to take them. #HighAchievers #Aspiration #SixthFormSuccess #FutureLeaders #SummerSchools AimHigh

A group of year 12 students from Rainham sixth had the opportunity to visit Hertford College, and Trinity College at the University of Oxford to experience college life and receive inspiration for the UCAS applications and personal statements. As well as visiting the colleges, the students had the chance to take part in an engaging and stimulating activity on probability with Dr James Munro of the Oxford Maths Department, speak to current students about their journey to Oxford, visit the Bodleian library, and sample a college lunch. A great day for all involved and thank you to all the staff and students at Oxford who gave up their time for our students. The sixth form team are looking forward to supporting all of our year 12 students with their UCAS applications which will soon begin in earnest. In the forthcoming weeks further university visits are planned for more students to Goldsmith’s, University of London and the University of Greenwich.
