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)
“We are all adult learners. Most of us have learned a good deal more out of school than in it. We have learned from our families, our work, our friends. We have learned from problems resolved and tasks achieved but also from mistakes confronted and illusions unmasked. . . . Some of what we have learned is trivial: some has changed our lives forever.”
—Laurent A. Daloz (20th century)
