Common mistakes parents make

Misconceptions we hear most often about this school

Misconception 1

Passing the Medway Test alone does not guarantee a Year 7 place at RMGS.

Qualifying as selective-eligible is only the first hurdle. Final allocation depends on oversubscription criteria, and distance from the school is frequently the deciding factor.

Misconception 2

For sixth form, meeting the minimum GCSE threshold does not automatically guarantee an external place if courses are oversubscribed.

Parents often assume the highest scorers get priority. In practice, once a child meets the selective threshold, proximity to the school can matter more than raw score.
