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.

In a day provided by LEAF Education our year 10 Food Preparation and Nutrition students spent the morning at Raisgill Farm. A tour of the farm helped us to understand how our milk is produced and to find out about ways in which farmers are working to reduce the environmental impact of farming. A local vet explained the importance of high standards of animal welfare as well as providing a demonstration of pregnancy scanning of cows. Finally, we were able to meet with and talk to representatives from a range of careers available within the agriculture sector.

Just down the road at Tebay Services we were able to find out about the local food produce sold in the farm shop, careers within the food industry and flex our creative talents constructing a steak and ale pie like the ones sold on site.

A fantastic day! Thank you to everyone involved in making it happen!
