Headmaster's welcome
For 450 years, successive generations of boys have benefited from an education at Queen Elizabeth's School. Our mission is to produce young men who are confident, able and responsible.
I would highlight two matters at the outset. Firstly, QE is a meritocracy. As a selective, non-denominational and non-fee-paying School, we offer opportunities equally, admitting and educating boys irrespective of parental income, residential location or religious affiliation.
Secondly, we deliver a richly faceted, holistic education, and we need all members of staff to support this, ensuring our students to participate fully in the wider life of the School.
We are committed to the pursuit of academic development at the highest level among our boys. We unashamedly celebrate intellectual accomplishment, including our outstanding examination results; we also endeavour to nurture scholarly curiosity through a programme of academic enrichment which takes pupils well beyond the constraints of the GCSE and A-level curriculum.
Our extensive range of exciting and worthwhile co-curricular activities broadens boys' horizons and helps them to acquire new skills. Through our meticulously developed pastoral arrangements, we inculcate attributes such as confidence, resilience and perseverance. We also emphasise service and philanthropy, encouraging Elizabethans to look beyond purely personal success and to seek ways to contribute to society.
We were The Sunday Times Schools Guide's State Secondary School of the Year for 2022 and again for A-levels in 2025. Also in 2022, inspectors from Ofsted confirmed our 'outstanding' rating in all categories. We draw strength from our past, while looking to the future. Celebrations for 2023's 450th anniversary began with a visit by HRH The Duke of Gloucester and continued on the anniversary itself - 24th March - with a thanksgiving service in Westminster Abbey. QE's development plan, Boundless , re-imagines our mission, enabling us to equip pupils to live successful, worthwhile lives in our fast-changing, and sometimes unpredictable, world.
Our overall approach, combined with our excellent facilities and our distinguished history, ensures that an education at QE is truly a state school experience like no other.
