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.








Students from the Eden Schools Enrichment Cluster enjoyed a day's activities in our Library yesterday, shadowing books from this year's Carnegie Medal for Illustration shortlist.
The students' favourite book was "The Endless Sea" by Chi Thai and Linh Dao, which tells the story of a family fleeing Vietnam to find safety.
