Title
The Royal Grammar Schools
Abstract
In 1821 the Royal Institution for the Advancement of Learning applied for the permanent establishment of public schools at Montreal and Quebec City which were called Royal Grammar Schools. From 1818 to 1846 the Royal Grammar School in Montreal, having amalgamated in 1818 with "The Classical and Mathematical School", was the leading secondary school in the city, with Alexander Skakel (1776-1846) as Headmaster. The Scottish-born Skakel established The Classical and Mathematical School in 1800. In 1846 the High School of Montreal absorbed the Royal Grammar School.
