Grammar school roasted online after sharing advert with glaring spelling mistake

Dover Grammar School for Boys in Dover, Kent, published the advert in print and online, but eagle-eyed locals were quick to spot that a mistake had been made in the spelling of the school's name - as they ironically had changed "grammar" to "grammer".

But the blunder left people online in stitches, with some even making reference to the practice of "writing lines" as a way of punishing the school for their mistake.
