This work was published upon the opening of the Wesleyan Proprietary Grammar School in Sheffield, intended to thank the people who contributed to its opening, and to set out the goal and discipline of the school. It includes a list of the directors, trustees, officers, proprietors, as well as a list of the initial students enrolled. The school was in competition with Church of England's Sheffield Collegiate School, which had opened a couple of years prior. In 1884 the two schools merged, re-naming themselves to Wesley College. Again in 1905 they merged with the Sheffield Royal Grammar School, changing their name again to King Edward II School.
