Queen Elizabeth School (伊利沙伯中學), or QES and QE for short, is an EMI secondary school founded by Hong Kong Government in Hong Kong. Located on a mound at the border of Sai Yee Street and Prince Edward Road West in Mong Kok and adjacent to Grand Century Place, CCC Heep Woh Primary School (中華基督教會協和小學) and HK Weaving Mills Association Primary School (香港布廠商會公學), the school is the first government Anglo-Chinese co-education school in Hong Kong. The school was conceived in 1953 when Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom was crowned. The school ran in September 1954 but operated as an after school on the premises in King's College. It was not until 1955 the Mong Kok premises was ready.
