A Word from the Head

We seek to provide a stimulating environment in which individuals will grow in confidence, skill, knowledge and compassion.

Monmouth School has a tradition of tremendous achievement, but is not held back by that tradition. Rather it gives the school the confidence to face the challenges which all schools in the 21st century now face. Crucially, as an independent school, it is master of its own destiny. Unlike many independent schools, however, it benefits considerably from the charitable support of its founder, William Jones, and the Haberdashers’ Company. This has two significant benefits: first our facilities are exceptional; second, the availability of scholarships, bursaries and our own assisted places scheme ensures that as many pupils as possible can benefit from the wide range of opportunities here. We prepare boys to take their place amongst the nation’s elite, but we are not an elitist institution.

Monmouth has a thriving boarding community which contributes much to the tone and ethos of this busy and vibrant school throughout the extended week and into the weekend, when there is the opportunity to experience a range of supervised sporting and recreational activities.

Of course any school’s greatest assets are the teachers and the pupils it attracts. Monmouth School is exceptionally fortunate in both and it is a privilege to lead a team of dedicated educators whose enthusiasm is constantly re-ignited by the young men they teach. In the classroom, on the sports field, in the theatre and in the concert hall great things have been achieved in the past and will continue to be achieved in the future because of this dynamic combination of youthful enthusiasm, talent and experience.

Dr Steven Connors was latterly a Deputy Head at Christ’s Hospital. Before that he was Head of English at Sevenoaks School and Housemaster of the International Centre there.
