2024 has been another remarkable year of growth for Michaelhouse, with the enrolment at an all-time high, and with boys and staff working in tandem and striving for the highest levels of attainment in every field of endeavour. The contribution of Old Boys to the school in many different areas has continued to be outstanding. This was exemplified in the development of the mentorship programme through which a boy passes as he moves from school to university and then, as an adult, into the world of work.

Michaelhouse was named by the international organisation STEER as the school of the year in 2024, a tribute to our focus on the well-being of our boys. And it was named by Carfax Education in their Schools' Index as one of the top 150 schools in the world. We were also named in the top ten independent schools internationally by Spear's Education, and in the top two in Africa, with the other school being a prep school in Kenya. More important than such transient awards is the support of Old Boys, parents and other benefactors who give selflessly of their time and resources to enable us to fulfil, in the best possible way, the vision of our founder, James Cameron Todd.

"Our aim is to make, not accountants, not clerks, not clergymen, but men; men of understanding, thought and culture" Canon James Cameron Todd, Founder of Michaelhouse (Speech Day 1897)
