Madam,
The school that I should think more likely to answer your purpose would be St Michael’s, Bognor, which is under the Provostship of Mr Woodward who has done so much for education – I cannot tell what the terms are but I know they are on a less expensive scale than those of schools equally good as education goes, and the doctrine is thoroughly high – The person to address for information is
The Lady Warden
St Michael’s
Bognor
Miss Lowden – Frome Selwood and Miss Parkinson at Brighton have excellent schools, but the terms are high.
Miss Bell
Winnington Hall
Northwich
has a school on a very large scale, where young ladies receive an excellent education on moderate terms. In fact it is the locality of Ruskin’s Ethics of the Dust and I believe he is often there, though I do not know whether that is a recommendation. The Author of Mabel’s music lessons is musical governess there1
Yours truly
C M Yonge
