It was founded in 1532 by two brothers, Robert and Nicholas Thorne, when it was housed in the St Bartholomew's Hospital, as part of the new founding of schools after Henry VIII's closure of the monasteries, where previously a large proportion of England's education had occurred.

It is divided into three separate sections: the Lower School takes children from the ages of 7-11, and the Upper School is for students aged between 11-16 studying for GCSEs. The Sixth Form is for students from 16-18 studying for their A-levels. There are currently around 1050 children in the Upper School & Sixth Form, of which around a third are girls, since its switch from boys-only to coeducational in 1980. BGS recently celebrated 25 years of girls at the school. The Lower School has over 200 children with a similar ratio of boys to girls. The General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) (in Welsh: Tystysgrif Gyffredin Addysg Uwchradd (TGAU) is the name of a set of British examinations, usually taken by secondary school students at age 14–16 in England, Wales and Northern Ireland (but not Scotland, where the equivalent is called Standard Grade). ...

The ratio of boys to girls remains steady at a third girls to two thirds boys. This appears to result in many parents not entering their girls for the school, and thus could be a self-perpetuating trend, as well as the larger number of girls-only equivalent schools to boys-only in the area.

Entrance into the school

Primarily the School accepts pupils at the age of 7 to the Lower School, and 11 for the Upper School. The School also accepts pupils at 14. The Sixth Form also accepts pupils from surrounding Schools at 16.

Progression through the school is more or less automatic without additional examination, although transition between Lower and Upper School requires the same entrance examination as other candidates, although Lower School entrants rarely fail. Assuming a pupil passes sufficient GCSEs, progression from the Upper School to the Sixth Form is also automatic, though some do choose to leave at this point, and fewer still do not achieve the grades required to progress to A-Levels. Entrance at this level to the school is by interview and offers based upon GCSE grades.

Campus

Bristol Grammar School occupies a triangle of land between the University of Bristol on the University Road side, what used to be Dingles department store on the lower side, and a series of houses on the Elton Road side known as Tyndalls Park. A triangle is one of the basic shapes of geometry: a polygon with three vertices and three sides which are straight line segments. ... The University of Bristol is a university in Bristol, England. ...

The school has been expanding of late, and while it has always owned all the houses to one side of the main campus until recently only four (Barton's, Norwood's, Martin's and Garrett's) were occupied. Lately two or more have been converted into specialist subject areas. The School is waiting for the leases (which are before the current Rent Act) to be relinquished by the tenants before they can use the buildings.

The school boasts a theatre and extensive IT facilities, as well as large playing fields outside Bristol in Failand. Failand is a village in the North Somerset unitary authority in England. ...

Main campus

• Great Hall: The foundation stone was laid on 10 June 1877. The school moved here during 1879 and it is the largest first floor hall in the United Kingdom. In 1996 the old servery was removed and the hall was restored to its old layout. There is a full kitchen between the Great Hall and the Science Wing. Underneath the Great Hall is the staff room, the Pople room, and the school offices. It has been designated by English Heritage as a grade II listed building.^[1]
• Lower School Hall and Rehearsal Room: This building was rebuilt in 1999. The old sports areas, where there used to be fives courts which were demolished. The offices used by the House Masters were refurbished. The end result was a re-landscaped playground in the top corner of the site for the lower school, the old gymnasium was converted into the new Lower School Hall and two art rooms. A new rehearsal room was added for the school orchestra and the Drama Department.
• Science (Fenwick Richards) Wing: Opened in 1909, this wing houses Year 11 and and the History Department, as well as the science laboratories.
• University Road Building: This building appears to have been once used for Chemistry, since the whole building is designed to give the maximum light possible. It now houses the Year 10 form rooms and the English Department.
• Sports Hall: The sports hall contains a full sized hall, four glass fronted squash courts, a climbing wall, a gym, sports teaching room and the Graveney room (for aerobics and dance). There was originally supposed to be a swimming pool underneath the main hall. However it was not possible to place such a large body of water next to the edge of the site due to the height differential, which would have resulted in the bank giving way.
• Princess Anne Block: The "PA Block", as it is known, houses the form rooms of Years 7 and 8 and the Mathematics Department.
• Porters' Lodge: Currently used by Facilities and the Development Office.
• Elton Road Building: This building was destroyed during the Blitz and was rebuilt after the war. It houses Year 9 form rooms, the Religious Studies and Philosophy Department, the Mathematics Department, and an IT room.
• John Mackay Theatre: The theatre adjoins the Elton Road Building and is used for school plays and musicals, year assemblies, SPD lectures, house concerts and plays, and Sixth Form lectures.
• Lower School: Previously the Headmaster's House until the Lower School was evacuated to it in 1940; it has been located there ever since.
• Technology Centre: This building houses the four Design and Technology Department workshops, which were in portakabins prior to 1994. There is also a CAD room, a workshop for the stores department, a car maintenance bay and a metal work room.
• Sixth Form Block: This houses the entire sixth form, although their forms are much smaller than those lower down the school and are split up all over the campus, using spare rooms as form rooms. Downstairs much of the block is dedicated to the Junior Common Room (known as the "JCR") with its own servery hatch. There are also offices, a prefects' room, and two computing labs. Upstairs there are teaching rooms, a careers room and careers computing lab.
• Library: One of the biggest school libraries in the country, the BGS Library also houses the school archives.

School song

BGS has a school song, called Carmen Bristoliense (Song of the Bristolians), which is in Latin. The song was written in 1909 by the Headmaster (then Mr. Cyril Norwood), and set to music by the Director of Music (then Mr. C. W. Stear). It is traditionally sung in the final school assembly each term, and at other school or related events such as the annual prize giving ceremony and old boys' (and girls') dinners. The song consists of four verses and a chorus, although usually only the first verse and chorus are sung. These are reproduced below. (Note that the fifth line had to be updated from Norwood's original on the 400th anniversary of the School's founding.) Latin is an ancient Indo-European language originally spoken in Latium, the region immediately surrounding Rome. ... Year 1909 (MCMIX) was a common year starting on Friday (link will display full calendar) of the Gregorian calendar (or a common year starting on Thursday of the 13-day-slower Julian calendar). ...

It has been a tradition, since at least the 1960s, to shout the word 'Quotquot', although nobody is entirely sure why that might be. Before this it was tradition to shout "Shit clarior, Shit dignior" rather than the true words. A rather clumsy translation of the first verse is below.

Until the 19th century the Headmaster was known simply as the "Master", and his assistants as "Ushers". Little is known of those of the 16th century and nothing of any before Thomas Moffat, the "scolemaster" of the City Audit Book of 1532 who took the School to the Bartholomews.

Trivia

• The school motto Ex Spinis Uvas, which translates as "Grapes from Thorns", is a play upon the names of the school founders Robert and Nicholas Thorne.

• The Rev. John Joseph Goodenough was appointed Master of Bristol Grammar School during March 1812. Goodenough practised Pluralism and during the time he was Master of the school the population of the school fell. He considered himself bound only to teach the learned languages and by 1829 the school was empty and remained empty for 16 years! It took the Trustees of the School until 1845 to remove him as Master and over £3000 in litigation.
