Changing Lives Through Learning

Queen Elizabeth Grammar School

Founded in 1564 by Royal Charter, our school has been helping young people to secure outstanding academic results and providing a well-rounded experience for over 450 years. The school encourages students to take responsibility for their learning from the moment they join, ensuring they are well prepared for the challenges they face on their journey at QEGS. We are a growing school with 1040 students currently on roll, but remain sufficiently small to recognise individual talents and ensure everyone is challenged and supported to reach their goals.

David Marchant - Headteacher

Our vision is to succeed in ‘Changing Lives through Learning’ by providing the very best possible educational opportunities for young people. At our heart our core principles of respect for the individual, the encouragement of involvement within school and the wider community and the development of initiative to provide students with confidence and curiosity are promoted through all areas of QEGS life.

What an evening! A huge well done to everyone who was involved in this years Nine Lessons and Carols at St. Andrews. The performances and readings were all beautiful and the event continues to go from strength to strength 🎶🎄

Thank you so much to Miss Wilkinson, Mr Gorman-Tysoe and all of the Music department, this is such a busy time for you and we really appreciate all of the work which goes into making these evenings happen.

We are looking forward to next year already!
