Admission is through assessment.  ESMS has a charitable foundation and provides financial assistance to over 150 bursary holders, who attend Stewart's Melville College or The Mary Erskine School.  The school has existed for more than 150 years and was voted The Sunday Times Independent Secondary School of the Year in 2013.
