    Royal Greenwich Trust School (part of the University Schools Trust) became an 11-18 mixed comprehensive school in September 2017. We are proud to be a school which retains the importance of positive and productive relationships at the heart of our community.

    In 2020, we opened our brand new £14 million new wing and moved into the next stage of the school’s development as our inaugural cohort transitioned into Key Stage 4.

    In October 2022, Ofsted judged us to be a GOOD school across all areas within the framework.

    The University Schools Trust is a unique partnership of six world-leading universities and three sector-leading bodies who are working together to deliver a shared vision of inclusive, high-quality and transformational education.
