At Rainham Mark Grammar School, our vision is to nurture aspirational young people who are curious and respectful of the world around them and have the courage to pursue happiness.  Our values-led approach to education will enable RMGS students to become responsible citizens with a social conscience able to make positive contributions to their local and global communities.  Our personal development programme aims to develop our students through the four ARCH pillars. 

We will work with all areas of school life to ensure that our students have the widest range of opportunities to develop these ARCH attributes. 

The core strands of delivery take place through timetabled PSHE lessons, the pastoral programme including assemblies, a comprehensive careers programme, and a full enrichment programme which includes student leadership, clubs, trips and in subject curriculum extension opportunities. 

We have a dedicated personal development week in Term 6 called ARCH week.  This is a week of enrichment activities ranging from team building days, careers opportunities, an ethics conference, and residential visits to name a few. 

The full programme will be published later in the year, but we are excited to announce that the week will kick off with our exciting off-site Sports Day allowing our RMGS community to come together in the spirit of healthy competition.
