Welcome

Founded almost 500 years ago ‘for the instruction of youth in good manners and learning’, Wolverhampton Grammar School has blossomed into a highly successful, co-educational school, proud of its history and traditions, but dynamic and forward looking.

In many ways ‘good manners and learning’ still sit at the heart of everything we do.  WGS is a selective, academic school, but one that focuses on a broad and balanced education that will help to prepare our students for the challenge and opportunities of life in the twenty-first century.

The school’s well rounded education flourishes in the happy, caring environment that is based on the excellent relationships that exist between student and teacher: the atmosphere is relaxed but purposeful, challenging but supportive. 

Today WGS is a thriving community that not only reflects the city it serves but opens its door to boys and girls from around the region who want to be part of an outstanding school.

So, whether you are a prospective student or parent, current student or parent, Old Wulfrunian or just a curious visitor, I hope that you find this website useful. And please remember, a website can only do so much – the best way to find out about WGS is to come and see it for yourself.

Vincent Darby, Head.
