Queen Elizabeth High School is a comprehensive school for Carmarthen town and its surrounding areas.

[citation needed] In September 2008, Daniyal Shahzad, a Pakistani national falsely claiming his name was Ahmer Rana, became a pupil at the school.

Lodging with foster parents, on investigation in 2010 by the UK Border Agency, he claimed that he had no family.

He was subject to a deportation order, and the school became the centre of a campaign to allow him to stay in the UK, which resulted in a 4,000 signature petition being collected and presented to Gordon Brown.

After further investigation by S4C's current affairs programme 'Y Byd ar Bedwar' [2][3] his true identity was revealed.
