- From September 2026, Queen Elizabeth Grammar School will join Wakefield Girls' High School and Wakefield Grammar Pre-Preparatory School in one co-ed diamond model school for pupils aged 3-18.
- “The Wakefield Way” ethos celebrates and nurtures individual learning needs.
- QEGS dates back to the reign of Elizabeth I — with Mary Queen of Scots royally despatched and the Spanish Armada recently defeated, the citizens of Wakefield used this time of relative peace to focus on the education of local boys.
- Its alumni association is the Old Savilians’ Club, named after five of the 14 original governors who bore the name Savile.
- The Radcliffe Scholars programme is a hallmark of academic enrichment at QEGS: it provides tailored support to those applying to Oxbridge and challenges pupils to take the Mensa test.
- Boys are encouraged to train in roles of peer support, helping new pupils with anything from settling in to homework and friendship advice.
