Badge as depicted in Bunty #141 [24 Sep 1960]



The Free Grammar School was founded in 1590 by Thomas Conyers of Egglescliffe, who was issued letters patent by Queen Elizabeth I to found a grammar school in the parish of Yarm. The original Free Grammar School of Thomas Conyers was in the grounds of Yarm Parish Church, but transferred to a site off The Spital in 1884. In 1977, the school moved to its present site on Green Lane when it became a comprehensive school known as Conyers' School. The fee-paying Yarm School was founded on the site at The Spital in 1978.

Conyers' School continues to ise the grammar school badge design.
