The current Governors provide between them a broad range of relevant experience and qualifications. A majority are Members or appointees of the Leathersellers’ Company to which Abraham Colfe entrusted the School in his will when he died in 1657.
The activities of the Leathersellers are many and varied (www.leathersellers.co.uk) but the School and its fortunes continue to feature prominently on the Company’s agenda. The Master of the Company is, ex officio, a member of the Board of Governors.
