The School 

Ermysted’s Grammar School can trace its origins to the last decade of the 15th century, possibly as early as 1476 but certainly before 1492, as a chantry school founded by Peter Toller adjoining the Skipton Parish Church. It was refounded after the dissolution on a different site in 1548 by William Ermysted, Master of the Temple and Canon Residentiary of St. Paul’s Cathedral, and it moved to its present site in 1876. Throughout its history it has been an all boys’ school and only relatively recently, in 1989, was the boarding house closed, an inevitable consequence of the burgeoning demand for day boy places. 

The pleasant market town of Skipton serves a large surrounding rural area, mainly in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, immediately to the North. A wide range of reasonably priced housing is available and Skipton, together with the immediate surroundings, is an appealing place to live, with large towns, such as Harrogate, Leeds, Bradford and Manchester relatively close and easily accessible. Communications are good. 

The school occupies a green and wooded site about half a mile from the centre of Skipton on the main route from the town leading to the A65 and to Settle and the Lake District. The original 1876 stone buildings have been added to over the years to provide modern facilities with comfortable and effective accommodation for teaching and learning. 

Academic record 

Ermysted’s remains one of the top performing schools in the country and continues to offer its students an exciting and engaging curriculum across a broad range of subjects. Attainment at GCSE and A-Level is very high and consistently so. Outcomes are good for all groups of students and achievement is particularly high in the Sixth Form. The most-recent academic data is summarised on the school website. 

Nearly all our Year 11 students continue into further education, with the vast majority remaining at Ermysted's in order to study for Advanced Level qualifications. In addition, a number of other boys (circa 30 in 2016-17) join the Sixth Form from other schools. 

Around 95% of students eventually proceed to university each year and the destinations reflect the school’s academic pedigree – from a cohort of 113 students, currently 12 students hold offers from Oxford or Cambridge; and a further dozen students are applying for medicine. Each year a small number of students leave to take up apprenticeships or opt to take a gap year.

Safeguarding

Ermysted’s Grammar School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful candidate will be expected to undergo enhanced DBS clearance.
