Today, its educational and co-curricular excellence have made it one of the top secondary schools in Singapore. It provides students with a 6-year Raffles Program[4] which cumulates in the Singapore-Cambridge General Certificate in Education (GCE) 'Advanced' Level Examination. The school was recognised by the Ministry of Education in 2006 by being awarded the School Excellence Award (recognising schools with 'exemplary school processes and practices'), among other awards.[5] History{{Reimprove|section|date=January 2018}}Before RGS became a school in its own right, it existed as a part of Raffles Institution (RI).[6] The department for girls was opened in the RI campus of Bras Basah Road on 4 March 1844 with 11 students, 5 day-scholars and six boarders, who were clothed, fed and instructed by the institution itself. The demand for education grew and in 1847, the school moved to RI's eastern wing, extending towards Bras Basah Road. Governor of the Straits Settlement, E.A. Blundell described RGS as "a female school designed for the education and religious training of the children of poor Protestant parents" in 1855.[7] In 1871, the school moved into a house, the George Family's Old Mansion at the corner of Bras Basah Road. In 1879, the school separated from RI and Miss Nelson was appointed the school's first headmistress. Together with three assistants, she ran the school which had an enrolment of 77. Since then, 1879 has been officially regarded as the year of the founding of RGS.[8] RGS currently has 1,800 students and staff. It will be moving to a new campus on Bradell Road, opposite Raffles Institution, by end-2019.[9] School culture and identityUniformThe usual school uniform is a belted, deep blue pinafore and a white collared blouse.[10] Students customarily fold their sleeves on most shirts (except Physical Education Shirt), which also requires a colour-coded nametag (colours Black/Green (green as of 2019) Blue, Red and Yellow inherited by first-year batch to graduating batch respectively), along with the school badge, on the top left of the uniform, right below the name tag.
