It’s the way our facilities enable our boys to ACHIEVE THE EXTRAORDINARY.

Steeped in over 429 years of history yet recognised as a school at the forefront of educational thinking, we’re continually refreshing and growing our facilities and resources, to enable students to excel in every area of academic and sporting achievement.

A campus with a welcoming sense of community.

Over the years, our secure school campus has grown organically with an eclectic mix of historic buildings, purpose-built facilities and green open space, to create the welcoming community you see today.

Adventure awaits.

A liberating sense of adventure and creative invention prevails in every area of our school. Behind the doors of our ornate 1910 building, you’ll see a flurry of academic activity as agile minds bursting with inquisitive energy apply their newly acquired knowledge to practical tasks and innovative challenges. While elsewhere, every day is an adventure, whether it’s dipping into our recently renovated swimming pool or learning a spot of bush craft in our very own Forest School.

Junior Section boys have a purpose-built STEM block, equipped with a Design and Technology workshop, cookery suite and large science lab. They also enjoy access to a state-of-the-art music room, with Apple computers and the latest professional recording equipment. In our cutting-edge ICT suites, boys can hone their digital skills in preparation for the future world, while our adjoining learning resource centre is jam-packed with books to inspire fertile imaginations.

Traditional building, modern learning.

Across the drive in our inspiring Senior Section building, remarkable heroes of days gone by adorn the walls of corridors rich in history. There’s a palpable buzz of discovery and exploration as boys enjoy a broad range of unique learning experiences in our bright, modern classrooms.

The school provides boys with access to specialist areas for 25 academic departments. Traditional in façade, our buildings boast several cutting-edge Design and Technology workshops, cookery and CAD suites, dedicated to design and innovation. Our creative minds are free to express themselves in inspiring art studio spaces or play, compose or collaborate in our recording studio, music rooms and classrooms.

in our dedicated Science block, budding scientists can enjoy out of this world learning experiences in several state-of-the-art labs. While promising sports stars have access to an indoor gym, fitness suite, sports pavilion and sports fields (home of the mighty ‘Black and Golds’), together with the Astroturf pitches and athletics track we share with our sister school, Wakefield Girls’.

The space for Sixth Formers to achieve more.

As students move to the top of school, our purpose-built Sixth Form Centre, complete with a large common room, dedicated study space and café, gives them the space and freedom to socialise and pursue independent learning.

These expansive and wide-ranging facilities ensure that the final stage of their QEGS journey will have everything they need to enrich their school experience, define their own individual voice and shape their future life story.
