English: From Flickr: Edward Alleyn founded Dulwich College with 12 students in 1619 to serve the sons of the yeomen of Dulwich. But the school grew in size and status until, by the 19th century, its fees were beyond the means of all but the very wealthy. In 1882 a new school was established to serve roughly the original purpose envisaged by Edward Alleyn. In honour of the original founder it was called Alleyn's School. It became a public school and was admitted to the Headmaster's Conference in 1919. For a while it was a Direct Grant School but when, in 1975, that status was abolished it became independent. Also, at about that time, it became co-educational. Notable Alleynians include P G Wodehouse, Sir Ernest Shackleton and C S Forester. Rather less well-known was my uncle, Frank Roberts, who, after a spell farming in Saskatchewan in the 1920's became an Anglican missionary in Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) and finally, after converting to Catholicism, Head of the Psychology Department at St Mary's University College, Strawberry Hill.
