The history of Aldworth school can be traced back to 1646, when the Blue Coat School was opened in Cross Street. It was due to an Alderman of the City of London named Richard Aldworth that the school was able to open, when he left £2000 in his will. The school provided education for ten boys from underprivileged backgrounds. The boys were educated, clothed and fed from the age of 7 until they 16, when they would be found jobs or enrolled in apprenticeship schemes. The school got its name from the distinctive uniforms the boys wore.
