Almost simultaneous with the endowment of these schools was the appropriation of some part of the funds of the Bradford Grammar School, ‘to supply a liberal education for girls by means of a school or schools within the borough of Bradford.’ Public opinion was, however, hardly ripe for such a diversion of any large part of an old endowment, and although, as Mr. Forster pointed out at the inaugural meeting, a charter of Charles II. had assigned the land ‘for the better teaching, instructing, and bringing up of children and youth,’ ‘which terms are of common gender,’ the money assigned to the girls would not have been sufficient to start the school, but for the generosity of the Ladies’ Educational Committee, which raised a sum of £5000 for purchasing the buildings. Thus the Bradford Girls’ Grammar School came into being. The fees are £12 to £15, 15s., and girls may stay till eighteen or nineteen. It is thus technically of the first grade, and as such prepares the pupils in the highest class for the university. Many, however, leave school long before attaining this stage, and this appears to constitute one of the special difficulties of North of England schools. There is, however, a wide list of subjects which may be taught, and from these the head-mistress arranges each pupil’s curriculum. As the fees are the same as those of a high school, the endowment fund helps to supply better salaries, apparatus, etc. and thus to increase efficiency. A scholarship fund of £1000 has been provided by the generosity of two private donors, and forty-one scholars have by its help already proceeded to the university.
