“The excellence of what you’re doing – and the integrity, passion, pragmatism, and good humour with which you appeared to be doing it – convinced us it was the right place for our son.”

Welcome // Rochester Independent College

However, that doesn’t stop Rochester from being in the top 5% of schools in the UK for student progress at A-level. And it doesn’t stop us preparing our students for success: their hard work and first-class results mean they go on to win places at a wide range of top universities.

Most students at Rochester Independent College join us from Kent, London, and other local areas in the UK. However, we welcome a small percentage of international students every year, who contribute

diversity and global perspectives to the college. No matter where our students are from, they find Rochester to be a place that lets them search for their own answers, voice their opinions, and think critically, creatively, and independently.

We warmly welcome you to see for yourself what Rochester can offer.

The Rochester Independent College Team

Rochester Independent College is a school like no other. Our unique campus and friendly staff make the college feel more like a home than a school. There is no uniform, no bells ring, and everybody is on first-name terms.

A Warm Welcome to Rochester Independent College.

“At RIC I felt like the teachers wanted to hear my opinions: they challenged us to think in different ways. I gained so much happiness and confidence. Everyone was there to work hard, but it didn’t always feel like work because it was really enjoyable!”Rebecca Dolman, student

Academic Study // Rochester Independent College

What is learning like at Rochester Independent College?

• Teaching is similar to a seminar or tutorial at university. Rather than individual desks, students gather around a table while tutors encourage them to discuss different aspects of a topic critically.

• Classes are an average of just eight in size and students have between six and eight hours of contact time per subject per week.

• Students can choose from 40+ subjects, with no restrictions on subject combinations.

Students have a huge choice of subjects at Rochester and can study them in almost any combination.

Academic Study.

Courses

A-levels (Sixth Form)

A-levels are the main school-leaving qualifications in Britain, and are globally respected. At Rochester, three or four A-levels are studied over two years from a choice of 40+ different subjects, with no restrictions on the combination that can be taken.

GCSEs

GCSEs are the precursor qualification to A-levels and are usually taken in multiple subjects (from a choice of around 30) over two years. There are some minor restrictions on the combinations of subjects that can be taken for GCSE study.

• All students in Sixth Form have a Personal Tutor with whom they meet regularly to discuss progress, targets, and future aspirations. Students also receive one-to-one tutorials and study support sessions, where they can address any areas for improvement.

• Formal reports are regularly sent to parents, and Personal Tutors can be contacted via phone or email with any questions or concerns.

English Language Teaching

Expert English language support is readily available to international students who would like to improve their language skills or prepare for an IELTS exam. Classes are timetabled alongside academic subjects and students work in groups with those at a similar level for the best possible progress.

85% of our students are native English speakers, which means it is natural for all our students to use English as a common language, improving their language skills.

Rochester offers variations on the main two-year A-level and GCSE options, including:

• One-year A-level courses

• A-level preparation programmes

• Re-takes of qualifications for students who wish to improve upon past results.

• One-year GCSE courses

Beginning of Year 13:

A Personal Tutor is assigned to every student in the Sixth Form to offer careers support and guidance on UCAS personal statements, applications, and references.

International students prepare short talks about themselves and their plans for the future. This helps them articulate their aims and get quality feedback from a variety of sources.

Visits to top universities in London such as the London School of Economics (LSE) and University College London (UCL), as well as UCAS exhibitions to learn about the different courses on offer.

Students attend personal statement workshops for guidance on careers, universities, and suitable summer holiday activities and work experience.

Where appropriate, students receive guidance and support from industry-leading experts at our sister companies at Dukes Education specialising in Oxbridge, Ivy League & US, medical, and law applications.

Personal Tutors, Heads of Sixth Form, and specialist UCAS staff work with every student individually to create strong university applications in the year before they apply.

At Rochester, we know that academic and personal development comes naturally to happy students.

Boarding & Student Care.

Support and Wellbeing

Student care at Rochester is based on developing each student’s interests and helping them achieve as much as they possibly can. Personal Tutors have regular meetings to monitor students’ wellbeing and discuss progress, targets, and future aspirations.

That’s why we make student welfare our priority and aim to create a place where everyone feels welcome. At Rochester, teachers treat students like adults, building mutual respect. The result is that many students say they have never been happier at school.

International students are fully integrated in all aspects of the college. From academics to life outside the classroom, Rochester has an inclusive, unified student body.

Life as a Boarder

Up to 90 of the 300 students at the college board each year. As boarding pupils, students will be part of a close, supportive community. Students all live on-site in single rooms (with some en-suites available) and breakfast, lunch, and dinner are freshly prepared on the premises. Boarding houses also have comfortable common rooms where film nights and other social activities take place every week. House Parents (Tutors who live in college) are always on site, ensuring there is someone to talk to and oversee the students at all times.

Boarding // Rochester Independent College

“I came to RIC shortly after moving to England from Lithuania. The informal nature of RIC made it feel welcoming – a place where you were heard, seen, and cared about. The staff were not only inspiring teachers but also friends who supported my artistic development for four years.”Ginte Barzdaitytewho won a place at UCL’s Slade School of Fine Art after a foundation year in Fine Art at Central Saint Martins.

Our students have a huge choice of activities and clubs outside of lessons, for enrichment, personal development… or just for fun!

Outside the Classroom.

Rochester also organises trips outside college, designed to link students’ academic studies to the wider world. These create a broader and more rounded understanding of a subject, which in turn can give students an advantage in their university applications. Activities have included visits to galleries and museums in London, trips to Bath and Shakespeare’s Stratford, a graffiti tour around east London, a hiking trip to the Brecon Beacons, and a day at Brands Hatch Racing Track.

Clubs

The college offers clubs from chess, coding, drama, textiles, and film to yoga, photography, running, and basketball. We also frequently create new clubs when students express an interest.

Sports and Fitness

All students are encouraged to stay fit and active. On site, Rochester has its own astroturf pitch and gym, and the college also uses Medway Park – a multi-million-pound sports facility with swimming pool, athletics track, sports centre, fitness suite, and spa.

The Arts

Rochester is one of the leading creative boarding schools in the UK, and our Arts staff are all practitioners with industry and studio experience in Filmmaking, Fine Art, Illustration, Graphic Design, Digital Media, Photography, Fashion, and Textiles. The school also has its own 100-seat theatre for small-scale productions.

Music

Individual music lessons are run in conjunction with Kent Music School and there are many practice rooms onsite. Musical groups are active in college and there is a Rochester Summer Festival where performing Arts students often showcase their talents.

“After RIC, I was accepted at the Professional Conservatory of the Stella Adler Studio of Acting in New York. Looking back I think the most important thing that RIC taught me is to love the process of learning. I’m sure that if I hadn’t studied at RIC I wouldn’t be where I am now. ”Irina Bravo, student
