Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School, Crediton

The former Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School in Crediton, Devon, England was founded (as The Kyng's Newe Gramer Scole of Credyton) in 1547 by Edward VI and re-endowed and renamed in 1559 by Elizabeth I.

"[2] [3] Teaching began in 1572 in the Lady Chapel of the parish church with 10 pupils[4] In 1861 it moved into new premises (at St Martins Lane).

[5] It was noted in Hansard in 1952 as a maintained secondary school which provided boarding.

[4] To accommodate the merger, a new multistorey block was built (aligned north-south) on the slope between the former schools.

In 1973 it merged with The Shelley Secondary Modern school at Barnfield, Crediton.
