Norwich School (previously King Edward VI’s Grammar School) is a fee-paying, co-educational independent school located in Norwich, United Kingdom. It is one of the oldest schools in the world, with a traceable history to 1096, (just 30 years after the Norman invasion) and is a member of The Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference.
Norwich School has one of the best academic records in East Anglia. In 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 The Daily Telegraph ranked its A-Level results as 80th, 71st, 93rd, 78th and 38th respectively amongst independent schools in the UK.
The school is located in the cathedral close of Norwich Cathedral, hence the address, and has a long association with it. On weekdays it is used by pupils for morning assemblies and various annual events.

Famous quotes containing the word school:
“The happiest two-job marriages I saw during my research were ones in which men and women shared the housework and parenting. What couples called good communication often meant that they were good at saying thanks to one another for small aspects of taking care of the family. Making it to the school play, helping a child read, cooking dinner in good spirit, remembering the grocery list,... these were silver and gold of the marital exchange.”
—Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
