Alleyn's School

Uncommon card · No. 185975

Alleyn's School is a 4–18 co-educational, public, day school and sixth form in Dulwich, London, England. It is a registered charity and was originally part of Edward Alleyn's College of God's Gift charitable foundation, which also included James Allen's Girls' School (JAGS) and Dulwich College. It became a public school with the election of its headmaster to the Headmasters' Conference (HMC) in 1929, but, like Oakham School, subsequently operated as a direct grant grammar school from 1958 until the abolition of that status in 1976, after which its governors opted for outright independence and co-education. It is very strong academically and usually outperforms its sister school Dulwich College at both GCSE and A-Level.
