The Aldgate School
The school was previously named after Sir John Cass but was renamed The Aldgate School in September 2020 in the light of Cass's links with the Atlantic slave trade.
Catchment
The Aldgate School admits pupils from the age of 4 (Reception) to the 6th year. There is currently one class of approximately 30 students per year. The school has a small priority catchment area that includes all of the City of London plus a few streets to the east, as far as the A1202 road, Commercial Street, Leman Street and Royal Mint Street.
In the 2016 reception class, a bulge class was established. For the first time, there were two classes of 30 pupils starting in September 2016. This class moved through the school year-on-year. There will not be an additional class at all levels, just one bulge class.
