Considering WGS?


We are thrilled that you are looking at our wonderful school which we are all extremely proud of. Wolverhampton Grammar School or WGS as it is affectionately known, is renowned for its friendly, warm and inclusive environment and we recommend that you book a tour or visit us on an Open Day to get a real sense of school life.

Whether you are looking for your child’s first ever school as they approach their 4th birthday or considering us for GSCE or even Sixth Form, the staff and students will be keen to share their experiences with you.

You may or may not have been privately schooled yourself? Are you wondering about the benefits of attending a fee-paying school? We hope that our academic results, first-class facilities, outstanding teaching, exceptional pastoral care and region-leading extra-curricular provision will all speak for itself as you look around. We are fortunate that our former pupils, known as Old Wulfrunians or OWs, visit us frequently to share their experiences with prospective families. We look forward to connecting you.

You can make a quick enquiry using the form below or alternatively if you are ready to register and pay our registration fee of £60 online, please visit our Apply Now page. Please speak to Admissions before registering if you are looking for entry to our Infant classes in the Junior School as we do have a waiting list. They can advise you regarding availability.

Availability


We welcome children from the age of 4 into our Reception class but we advise you to register early as places are in high demand.

We have limited places available for an immediate start into Years 3 to 6 in the Junior School and in most years of the Senior School. If you are looking for an immediate start into Year 10 or Year 12, we will need to look at subject options and timetabling. The 2026 – 2027 admissions cycle is underway so you can apply now for a place in September 2026 and we will be in touch to arrange your child’s assessment.

If you would like to make an informal enquiry please contact our Admissions Team on 01902 422939 or by email, alternatevely please fill out the form below.

    All data will be held securely by Wolverhampton Grammar School in line with our Privacy Notice and will be treated confidentially. Your data may be used to contact you by mail, email or telephone for the purposes of Admissions and relevant School events that may be of interest to you.

    Children thrive under our exceptional pastoral care, award-winning leadership and outstanding learning opportunities. Class sizes are deliberately small and classrooms are bright and airy, creating a wonderful learning environment for all.

    Ages 11 – 16

    Many new students join us in Year 7 and benefit from a full induction ahead of starting. The House system from Year 8 upwards is an extension of our pastoral care and central to school life. Our students consistently perform well in GCSE and A Level examinations and we are extremely proud of them.

    Ages 16 – 18

    As young adults, our Sixth Formers enjoy studying and socialising in their own Sixth Form Centre, bringing with it greater independence, support from the Sixth Form team and House tutors, the advantages of small teaching groups, and the opportunity to take on leadership and volunteer roles.
