From the Ermysted's Grammar School
Academic achievement is crucial, but so is the growth of character, resiliency, and self-assurance. We at Ermysted's take the growth of the child as a whole extremely seriously. The school takes great pride in its supportive and diverse community, and we work hard to create an atmosphere where every boy feels respected and encouraged to perform at his highest level. Opportunities abound in our comprehensive extracurricular programme, and boys are actively encouraged to diversify their own interests, pick up new skills, and lead healthy lifestyles. From the rugby field to the stage, from the concert hall to the debating chamber, our students commit themselves fully to the pursuit of excellence and develop the social and personal skills that will serve them so well in later life. I'm tremendously proud of the accomplishments and skills of the students and feel incredibly fortunate to be the Headmaster of such a prestigious and historic school. But don't just take my word for it; come and see for yourself by getting to know the staff and students. You won't be let down, I'm positive.
