Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference

(Redirected from Headmasters' Conference)

The Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference (HMC) is an association of the head teachers of 242 leading day and boarding independent boys' and coeducational schools in the United Kingdom, Crown dependencies and the Republic of Ireland. There are also International Members (mostly from the British Commonwealth) and a number of Additional Members who are elected as the head teachers of a limited number of outstanding state schools.

Membership of the HMC is often considered as what defines a school as a public schoolCitation needed in England or Wales, placing it amongst the more prestigious private schools.
