The following history of the school was taken from Wikipedia.
It was established in 1844 by Bishop William Piercy Austin as an Anglican grammar school for boys[1] and was aimed at educating the colonial elite.[2] The school was temporarily quartered at what is the current location of the High Court before moving to another property at Main and Quamina Street until 1854.[2] The current site of Bishops’ High School was the location of Queen’s College from 1854 to 1918. From there it moved to another property at Brickdam and Vlissingen Road, until 1951, when it moved to its current location. The final move saw significant expansion of classrooms and facilities, however an arson attack destroyed 1997.[2]
In 1876, the Compulsory Denominational Education Bill secularized education and it became Queen’s College of British Guiana as a national institution funded by the government. and in 1975 became co-ed.[3]
