Built on a collaborative ethos, Taylors’ is a warm, welcoming school, defined by its overwhelming sense of community before all else. Boys are supported and encouraged whilst they are inspired to reach the highest standards in all they do. We nurture creativity, confidence, curiosity and a host of other skills to create a truly impressive school leaver. We do not ‘hothouse’ – rather, we focus on helping each individual boy discover and hone his unique talents, rather than demand he conforms to a pre-determined mould.
The school serves exceptionally able young men who excel in the classroom, the laboratory, the orchestra, the stage and on the playing field. We send them on to the best universities and degrees, well-prepared to find success in life wherever they choose to look for it.
Merchant Taylors’ is a place where pupils develop confidence and strong social skills, fostering lifelong friendships in a vibrant community.
To learn well, we must first be happy. In all that we do at Merchant Taylors’, we hope to first inspire joy through education. Success usually follows.
As I prepare to retire in 2026, I am delighted that Mr Sam Baldock will be joining the School as its next Head Master. Sam brings energy, warmth and vision, and I am confident he will do a fantastic job leading Taylors’ into its next chapter.
