Every girl is known, valued and driven to achieve her very best.
History
Dodderhill School was founded in 1945 as the senior girls' school of Whitford Hall, a well-established prep school located in Bromsgrove. In 1999, Whitford Hall moved to the village of Dodderhill and was known as "Whitford Hall and Dodderhill School" until 2006.[1] On 30 April 2019, Dodderhill School merged with the RGS Worcester family of schools, and is now known as RGS Dodderhill.[2] In September 2021, RGS Dodderhill Prep School became co-educational, whilst the Senior School remains exclusively for Girls.[citation needed]
Academics
RGS Dodderhill has a strong academic record despite its relatively small size compared to other independent schools in the area.[3] The broad curriculum and preparation for GCSEs was commended in the 2017 ISI inspection reports.[1]
