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.
✨ Year 8 Careers Fair ✨
Today our Year 8 students took part in a careers fair, speaking with local employers, apprenticeship providers and colleges to explore the wide range of job opportunities available. They learned about different careers, career pathways and the skills they’ll need for their future and the world of work.
A huge thank you to Gen2 , Kendal College North Cumbria Integrated Care (Midwifery, Pharmacy and Radiology) Lloyd Motor Group, Gretna Green Famous Blacksmiths Shop , Carlisle College , Cumberland Council early careers team @cumberland_eca and Eden Country Care for taking the time to come in and inspire our students — we really appreciate your support! 👏
