As well as being Head of Religion and Philosophy, Zak leads our digital vision. He was instrumental in developing our excellent online learning offering during lockdown, much to the relief of our parents, and is now leading the roll out of our school device programme.

Languages students were very lucky to have Ulrike Zitzlsperger and Fiona Cox, German and French professors from Exeter University visit QEH earlier this month

QEH pupils from years 9 up to 13 heard about a wide range of topics, including the key skills that are developed when studying languages and the possibilities for language learning at university.

The professors also dispelled some myths, for example that the studying of languages leads to far more than teaching and interpreting; in fact 85% of their language graduates go into other fields of work, ranging from journalism to engineering.

The talks even prompted some discussions in lessons that followed, whereby students expressed their surprise at the many benefits studying a language can have for their future career prospects.

Our pupils are deep into their Ten Tors training, taking on challenging expeditions across the Mendips, Exmoor, and Brecon Beacons.

Latest QEH Podcast with Estates Bursar

You run a remarkable school with an ethic that is truly unique. It shines through in each and every boy. There’s something in the way the teachers know every boy’s talent and in the way the boys support each other (while also embracing real competition!) that’s just remarkable.
