Queen Elizabeth Grammar School
Founded by Royal Charter in 1564, QEGS has spent more than 450 years helping young people achieve outstanding academic results alongside a broad, well-rounded education.
We are consistently in the top 5% of schools nationally for academic performance. With just over 1,000 students across the main school and Sixth Form, we are small enough to know every pupil and recognise their individual talents.
Our students benefit from highly dedicated staff who are experts in their field. They are committed not only to academic excellence but also to an outstanding enrichment programme beyond the classroom.
At the heart of QEGS are our core principles: respect for the individual, involvement in school and the wider community, and the development of initiative. Together they give our students confidence and curiosity, and they shape every part of school life.
🎸 ROCK NIGHT 2026 🎸
What a night! Our annual Rock Night, held on the Thursday before half term, was a complete sell-out and showcased the incredible musical talent of our pupils. From Green Day to Taylor Swift, Oasis to AC/DC, the programme offered something for everyone, with a fantastic mix of styles and performances throughout the evening. A huge congratulations to all of the pupils (and staff!) who performed so superbly on stage. Their hard work, confidence, and musicianship helped create an unforgettable evening for a packed audience. Thank you to everyone who came along and supported the event. We can't wait to do it all again next year! 🎶🤘

STEM Roadshow Sparks Imagination at QEGS! 🚀
On Wednesday, our Year 7 and Year 8 students enjoyed an exciting performance of Material World: Engineering the Future, an interactive STEM theatre show delivered by @altrudrama and @Hi-Impact .
Fully funded by BAE Systems , the Royal Air Force and the Royal Navy, the roadshow brought Science and Design Technology to life through a fantastic blend of storytelling, live demonstrations and hands-on learning.
Students explored the fascinating world of materials science, discovering how metals, composites and smart materials are shaping the future of aerospace, engineering and modern technology. The performance sparked curiosity, challenged thinking and highlighted the wide range of exciting careers available within STEM industries.
A huge thank you to the roadshow team for visiting QEGS and delivering such an engaging and memorable experience. We hope it has inspired the next generation of scientists, engineers and innovators! ... See MoreSee Less
