Grantham Grammar School


 

Grantham Grammar School, also known as The King's School, is an English educational institution in Grantham, Lincolnshire with an unbroken history on the same site since the date of its endowment as one of the last acts of Bishop Richard Fox, in 1528. Fox was a local boy who rose owing to his position as secretary to Henry, Earl of Richmond, while he was in exile in Brittany, prior to the famous events of the Battle of Bosworth which led to Henry's capturing the throne as Henry VII. Ultimately, Bishop Fox also founded Taunton Grammar School.
