Born at Southsea, the son of Surgeon-Captain Fred Claude Bromley Gittings and his wife Dora Mary, née Brayshaw, the young Gittings was educated at St Edward's School, Oxford, where he was taught by George Mallaby, and Jesus College, Cambridge, where he arrived in 1930 with a scholarship, gaining a First in 1933.〔Tolley, G., ''Gittings, Robert William Victor (1911–1992), poet and writer'' in ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'' (online version ) (subscription required), accessed 10 August 2008〕 He later wrote the article on George Mallaby in the ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography''.〔Gittings, Robert, ''Mallaby, Sir (Howard) George Charles (1902–1978)'' in Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004〕
While still at school he published poems and thus encountered Christopher Fry, a lifelong friend. At the University of Cambridge, he was encouraged by Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch, editor of the ''Oxford Book of English Verse'', whose rooms in college were near his, and in 1931 he was awarded the Chancellor's gold medal for English verse.〔
