St. George's Grammar School (Hyderabad)
St. George's Grammar School was established by the Church of England to cater to the educational needs of the children of the British community serving the Government in Hyderabad.
When India gained independence, the school was handed over to the newly formed Church of South India that also incorporated the Church of England apart from other Church Societies of British origin.

Famous quotes containing the words grammar and/or school:
“Grammar is a tricky, inconsistent thing. Being the backbone of speech and writing, it should, we think, be eminently logical, make perfect sense, like the human skeleton. But, of course, the skeleton is arbitrary, too. Why twelve pairs of ribs rather than eleven or thirteen? Why thirty-two teeth? It has something to do with evolution and functionalism—but only sometimes, not always. So there are aspects of grammar that make good, logical sense, and others that do not.”
—John Simon (b. 1925)
“There is nothing intrinsically better about a child who happily bounces off to school the first day and a child who is wary, watchful, and takes a longer time to separate from his parents and join the group. Neither one nor the other is smarter, better adjusted, or destined for a better life.”
—Ellen Galinsky (20th century)
