Merchant Taylors’ has provided an excellent education to boys ever since its foundation in 1620.

This historic school is built upon a fine record of academic attainment underpinned by a broad range of co-curricular activities and a learning environment that values care and respect for others. It is a happy, vibrant place, full of energy and enthusiasm and brimming with aspiring and ambitious people who want to make the most of themselves and help those around them to do the same.

Boys are encouraged to develop their friendship groups, explore new areas of interest and broaden their personal horizons. A passionate, dedicated academic team helps boys to understand the potential they have within themselves how they can unlock that in ways that are bespoke to their own skills and needs.

The opportunities to grow extend way beyond the classroom and boys excel at all manner of enrichment and co-curricular pursuits, including the CCF (Combined Cadet Force), major drama productions, national maths competitions or sports such as rugby, cricket, football or hockey.

Mr David Wickes
