The aim of this page is to profile the staff of Boston
Grammar School, past and present. If you have information
about any of the staff of the type recorded here, then please
send it to the email address at the bottom of this page.
The details on these pages include some items which could
be considered offensive if taken out of context. Nicknames
shown are those which were in common use and are provided in
order to help the identification of the people concerned.
Remember that these names were devised by 11-18 year old
boys, and may in some cases be less than flattering.
Anecdotes quoted on these pages reflect the views and
memories of their respective authors; their presence here
does not indicate endorsement of the views expressed by the
Web master, by the Old Bostonian Association, or by Boston
Grammar School. If you are offended by anything written about
you or your family members, please email the address at the
bottom of this pages, and appropriate amendments will be
made.
