Following on from their incredible performance at Glastonbury which hit our local news, Ezra Collective won The Mercury Prize last night.
This is such fabulous news and we are delighted for our ‘Old Boys’ and their band mates.
At the awards ceremony, Femi’s speech thanked people and organisations that gave support during their musical journey, and again, we are so proud to get a mention and know how our passionate music department was one of the various platforms that helped springboard these ex-students to where they are now. He emphasises how important all our local youth groups and services are in the UK, believing in and giving young people a chance.
Mr Escott, who is still teaching within our music department, was one of their music teachers when they were here in school and he recently got the chance to meet up with Ezra Collective where they reminisced about rehearsals in room C12 at Lower School, EGS music tours and concerts in our main hall; Mr Escott is pleased to say the boys still have very fond memories of their days at Grammar.
These brothers, Femi & TJ and their band mates are a shining example of what dedication and hard work can achieve, from the Year 7 Band to Mercury music prize-winners !
(YouTube clip 2.5 minutes long – a super delighted Ezra Collective moment and a lovely tribute to youth services inc an EGS mention at 1.35)
Ezra Collective is composed of drummer and bandleader Femi Koleoso, bassist TJ Koleoso, keyboardist Joe Armon-Jones, trumpeter Ife Ogunjobi, and tenor saxophonist James Mollison.
The group took the top prize over nominated artists including Fred Again, Arctic Monkeys and Raye!

Enfield Grammar School would like to congratulate all our GCSE students on some outstanding personal successes, including impressive grades and excellent progress.
We are incredibly proud of the commitment, resilience and hard work demonstrated by our students in the face of the disruption they have experienced in recent years. They have truly embodied our school motto of “Tant Que Je Puis” (“As much as I can”).
We are pleased to have begun enrolling our own students and welcoming students from other schools to join our Sixth Form as it enters an exciting new chapter; accepting female students for the first time.
We remain open to applications on a first-come-first served basis so please explore our website for details of our courses and how to apply.
Mr Lamb, Headteacher at Enfield Grammar School, commented:
“It has been such a pleasure to see our students flourish over the last five years and I was delighted to congratulate them today on some superb outcomes. We are incredibly proud to have witnessed their journeys from boys, to the fine young men they have become. We look forward to witnessing their continued academic and personal successes whether with us or in pastures new. We have really valued the partnership and support of the parents of our students and we thank our teachers and support staff for their ongoing commitment to the boys’ achievements.”
We would like to welcome, Katie, our first female sixth former to enrol with us this year.
Having changed our admissions criteria for entrance into our sixth form from this academic year, it is with immense pleasure, we can now welcome in girls, and, hence create another history milestone for the school; since 1558 Enfield Grammar School has been a boys only school……until now!
If you are a girl who is still undecided about which sixth form place to take, then why not join Katie in making history, and contact us.
