Careers

Queen Elizabeth Grammar School (QEGS) careers program provides our students with the knowledge, understanding and skills to make informed and ambitious choices about their future. It promotes equality of opportunity, celebrates diversity and challenges stereotypes. It is designed to meet the Gatsby benchmarks and conforms to statutory requirements. Although we know that most of our students will go on to study at university (and remain with us for Sixth Form), we want all students to understand and evaluate the alternatives available to them, both post-16 and post-18.
