Yarra Valley Grammar School (YVG) is a private co-educational Anglican grammar school, located in Ringwood, a north-eastern suburb of Melbourne, Australia. Yarra Valley was founded as an Anglican day school for boys in 1966, before transitioning to a co-educational model in 1978. The school is a member of AGSV (Associated Grammar Schools of Victoria), and has been periodically ranked amongst the top 50 schools in the state according to VCE and ATAR results,[4] being placed 25th in Victoria in 2023.[5]

Yarra Valley Grammar has also produced notable alumni in the areas of sport, politics and academia, including seventeen professional AFL players, four olympians and two Victorian supreme court judges.
