Values and vision
Queen Elizabeth Grammar School Penrith believes in taking the best aspects of a traditional grammar school ethos and blending them with what it sees as the most useful elements of good practice in modern education. At the school, there is a dedication to academic excellence.
The school also wishes to keep itself small and friendly so that teachers and pupils know each other and can work together effectively.
The school also believes in enriching students’ learning experiences in ways that go beyond the school curriculum. There is considerable extra-curricular provision in sport and the performing and creative arts. For example, in the Autumn term alone each year there will be over one hundred separate sporting fixtures in rugby, football, netball and hockey with numerous theatre trips, drama workshops and performances by the various music ensembles in several concerts and school events. There are also many opportunities outside lesson time for pupils to participate in outdoor pursuits, art, design and technology, science, and engineering as well as mathematics, business, and enterprise activities.
