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.

Today our Carnegie Medal for Writing shadowing group played detective, working out how much of the book plot they could predict from the cover art. Without giving any spoilers, let's just say that they made some very interesting and insightful points! The discussion was fuelled with a caramel apple cake inspired by shortlisted title, "The Final Year" by Matt Goodfellow.

In the last week before Easter we celebrated the end of the sporting season for our school first teams in basketball, cross-country, football, gymnastics, netball and hockey. For some students in Year 11 and for Year 13 this marks the end of their school sporting career. We hope they continue to reap the benefits of being part of a sports team as they venture into pastures new! Thank you to everyone who has made all they have achieved possible by giving their time, passion and expertise! #WorkingTogether #aiminghigh #strivingbeyond #thisisQEGS ... See MoreSee Less
