The School was founded in 1889 by Scottish academic Dr Cecil Reddie, to provide a modern, progressive education for boys aged 10-19. Co-educational since 1969, the school describes itself as Christian but non-denominational and places emphasis on providing experience beyond the classroom, with special emphasis on music and the arts.
