We were delighted to welcome back Old Elizabethan (1992-1999), Minister of State (Minister for the Armed Forces and Veterans), and Conservative MP for the Wells constituency, James Heappey today.

During a busy visit, James enjoyed a tour of the school with a Sixth Form pupil, caught up with some of his former teachers, met with Mr Heathcote, found his name on the board in the School Room and finished by speaking to a packed audience made up of students from the Geopolitics Club.

The students eagerly asked questions on topics ranging from climate change to the war in Ukraine and the impact of the UK's involvement in providing weapons and ammunition.  

A big thank you to Mr Heappey for revisiting QEH and meeting with our pupils and having insightful and interesting political conversations and debates with our pupils.  

 

If you would like to come back and see your old school, please email the development team qehdevelopment@qehbristol.co.uk to organise a visit and tour around QEH.
