For a field $F$ and a finite group $G$, $R=F[G]$ is a quasi-Frobenius ring, and in particular, $R_R$ contains a copy of every simple right $R$ module.
(Actually, the more specific relevant condition is that it is a left and right Kasch ring.)
Since $F[G]$ is $|G|$ dimensional, the dimension of any such copy would have to be less or equal.
Now since $F[G]$ is Artinian, it has finite composition length. A composition series can start at any one of these simple submodules. Now, the only way for $\dim(S)=|G|$ for one of these simple submodules is if the compostion length is $1$: but that would mean $F[G]$ is a simple $F[G]$ module, implying that it is a field. But when $|G|>1$, the augmentation ideal of $F[G]$ is always nonzero, so it is only a field when $|G|=1$.
Thus if $|G|>1$, $F[G]$ has composition length $>1$, and therefore $S\neq F[G]$ and has strictly smaller dimension.
