Queen Elizabeth Grammar School, Wakefield
Queen Elizabeth Grammar School (QEGS) is an independent, public school for boys in Wakefield, West Yorkshire, England. QEGS is distinct from most other schools in that it was founded by Royal Charter of Queen Elizabeth I in 1591 at the request of leading citizens in Wakefield (headed by Thomas Saville and his two sons) 75 in total and some of whom formed the first governing body.〔(History of Wakefield Cathedral 16th Century )〕
In 1854 QEGS moved to its present site in Northgate, Wakefield, into premises designed by the architect Richard Lane〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Images of England—Detailed Record )〕 and formerly occupied by the West Riding Proprietary School.

The school is part of a ''foundation'', with both QEGS Senior and Junior schools joined together, along with the nearby Wakefield Girls' High School and its Junior School, and ''Mulberry House'', which is a nursery and pre-prep department.
As of September 2010, the current headmaster of the school is David Craig,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=QEGS Independent Senior School for boys aged 11 to 18 in Wakefield, Yorkshire )〕 taking over Les Hallwood, who stood in as acting Headmaster during the time between the leave of the previous headmaster, Michael Gibbons, and the beginning of the next academic year.
