Reigate Grammar School (often abbreviated to RGS) is an independent co-educational day school located in the town of Reigate, Surrey, United Kingdom. Grade levels range from 7 to 13, with the majority of its pupils entering at the age of 11, and others entering at 13 and 16. ==History== The school was founded as a free school for poor boys in 1675 by Alderman Henry Smith with Jon Williamson, the vicar of Reigate, as master. It remained in the hands of the church until 1862 when a board of governors was appointed. Under the Education Act of 1944 it became a voluntary aided grammar school, providing access on the basis of academic ability as measured by the 11 plus examination. In 1976, it converted to its current fee-paying independent status.〔 〕 At the same time the sixth form was opened up to girls. In 1993, the school became fully co-educational. In 2003, the school merged with St. Mary's School.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Reigate Grammar School )〕 Many of the boys who attend the school and also the leavers go on to play for the their old boys' rugby club, Old Reigatians RFC. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Reigate Grammar School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
