Katherine Bayley's School

Katherine Bayley's School (also known as Mrs. Bayley's Charity School) was a school for boys (and, initially, girls) in Coventry, England, established in 1733. The school was created and endowed thanks to a bequest "to be devoted to the education of children in reading, writing and accounting" from Katherine Bayley, who died aged 52 on 20 February 1730. Her executor Francis Blythe used the money to establish the school, which he named after her. Documents relating to the school are preserved in Coventry Archives.
