Alumnae

Forever LEH

LEH first opened its doors in 1710, thanks to the generosity and foresight of one remarkable woman, Lady Eleanor Holles. For over three hundred years, we have been producing remarkable women who, in turn, go on to do remarkable things. Today, our mission remains the same.

At LEH we encourage pupils to become informed, bold, resourceful, and ethical global citizens. People who are valued for the qualities and immeasurable richness they bring to our community. When they leave us, they’ll join a worldwide network of accomplished women who are shaping and changing the world. These young women will become part of a fabric of relationships that will benefit them personally and professionally for the rest her life.

Support wherever life takes you

Attending LEH gives students so much more than a top-class education. Their time here instils a sense of confidence, strength and resilience that stays with them long after they leave. We are every bit as proud of our alumnae and what they go on to achieve as we are of our pupils while they attend school. We continue to support and champion them always. Here some of our alumnae explain what LEH means to them and how it has continued to inspire them.

We recently received a wonderful email from a woman whose great-great-aunt, Amelia Corby, attended Lady Eleanor Holles in 1899.

Amelia would have walked our corridors when the school was still based in Hackney, more than a century ago. Her niece kindly shared a photograph of a book Amelia kept from her time here, a beautiful piece of our history brought back to life.

Moments like this remind us that the legacy of LEH stretches across generations. For well over 316 years, brilliant young women have studied here, each leaving her mark on the world.

We are proud to be part of a story that continues to connect families, histories and futures.
