About Lancaster Royal Grammar School
Lancaster Royal Grammar School is a top day and boarding grammar school of around 1000 boys aged 11–18, including 200 boarders and a thriving sixth form of over 300. The School was endowed in 1472 and is one of the oldest state-funded schools in the country. Originally situated close to the Priory Church and Lancaster Castle, the LRGS moved to its present site in 1851 when Queen Victoria granted the Royal title. LRGS has a long tradition of providing excellent opportunities for boys to excel academically as well as a national reputation for sporting and extra-curricular achievement. Students achieve consistently high academic standards and are supported by a strong and effective pastoral system. The School became an Academy in 2011.

Lancaster Royal Grammar School Courses and Mock Exams
With high entry standards to Lancaster Royal Grammar School, your child will need plenty of preparation in order to get in. Parents can choose to use tutors/tuition centres or books/structured courses. The benefits of a structured course are that it is tailored to the area you are applying for and parents can focus on helping their child rather than worrying about which books to buy when and what order to do the work in.
Our courses are used by parents and by private tutors who choose to use them instead of books to help their children.
We also supply a series of mock exams to complete at home. These are invaluable either instead of expensive hall based mocks or done before a hall based mock to ensure you get best value from it.
