Elmhurst joins IAPS

9th January 2012

We are delighted that Elmhurst School for Boys has joined the Incorporated Association of Preparatory Schools. At the IAPS council meeting on November 29th 2011 Elmhurst was unanimously voted into membership of the oldest association of prep schools in the UK.

‘Elmhurst’s membership of IAPS recognises the fact that Elmhurst has become one of the elite prep schools in the country,’ commented Henry Wickham, Principal. ‘Our boys achieve extraordinary results in both their academic and their extra-curricular pursuits. We are extremely pleased to be joining an association which will help the boys develop their abilities and skills through greater training opportunities and through access to more nationwide competitions.’

Elmhurst will remain a member of the Independent Schools’ Association, a smaller body which covers schools of all age-ranges. Within the ISA Elmhurst has had huge success in sporting competitions, winning the football national finals, the cricket national finals and several national swimming medals, to name but a few achievements in recent years.
