Ravens Wood lost narrowly against the Leys School. In April 2014 the Year 8 team won the English Schools Football Association Under 13 Schools Cup on penalties at Reading's Madejski Stadium.[5]
The RWS Football and Rugby academies are developed exclusively for students entering Sixth Form. As of 2015, there are around 30 students for the Rugby Academy[6] and three teams for the Football Academy.[7] The Football Academy is tied with Fulham FC which allows the students to closely participate with the club including use of their training facilities, coaches and pathways to semi-professional clubs.
In July 2021, four boys completed the Ben Morgan Memorial Run in fancy dress - two in inflatable dinosaur suits, one as a minion and one as a banana.
In June 2023, year 12 student Fraser Macaulay debuted for Scotland Rugby league u18s.This is alongside other rugby league achievements such as Kai Pearce-Paul debuting for England Rugby League in the World Cup.

It is thought to be the first boys' school in the UK to take the contemporary dance drama title.[10]
