2026 marks 100 years since Portsmouth was officially granted city status - a milestone that gives us a wonderful opportunity to reflect on the history of the city we call home. For generations, The Portsmouth Grammar School has been part of that story, educating young people who have gone on to contribute to Portsmouth and far beyond.

To celebrate this special anniversary, we are inviting our community to support the William Smith Fund, which funds life-changing bursaries and supports important projects across the school.

From 9am Monday 23rd March to 1pm on Friday 27th March, we will be holding a special 100-hour giving campaign. During this time, every donation up to £150,000 will be matched by a generous donor, doubling the impact of your gift.

We are incredibly grateful for your support which helps ensure that talented young people can benefit from a PGS education regardless of financial circumstance, while also enabling the school to continue investing in opportunities for current and future pupils.
