Sir Joseph Williamson's Mathematical School

sir joseph williamson's mathematical school

Rochester

Sir Joseph Williamson’s Mathematical School was founded in 1701 in accordance with the last will and testament of Sir Joseph Williamson, who bequeathed five thousand pounds “towards the building and carrying on and perpetual maintaining of a free school at Rochester for the instructing and educating of such youth there who were or should be the sons of freemen these towards the Mathematics and all other things which fit and encourage them for the sea service and arts and callings leading and relating thereto”. Sir Joseph Williamson served as a leading politician and diplomat during the reign of King Charles II. He was first elected as MP for Rochester in 1690 and held various offices (including Secretary of State aged 41) until his retirement in 1699 when he settled to live at Cobham Hall. At one time he was President of the Royal Society, Keeper of the King’s Library at Whitehall and Editor of the Oxford Gazette. He receives mention in the diaries of Samuel Pepys. Williamson’s life and work is not without controversy. He was an investor and administrator in the Royal African Company, a trading company set up in 1660 and led by the Duke of York (future King James II). This company held the monopoly of the English slave trade from Africa to the West Indies. Professor William Pettigrew from Lancaster University, in his book ‘Freedom’s Debt: The Royal African Company and the Politics of the Atlantic Slave Trade, 1672-1752’ (2016) writes that the Company ‘shipped more enslaved African women, men and children to the Americas than any other single institution during the entire period of the transatlantic slave trade’.

Plymouth

Three things you need to know about Sadie: she loves colour, she loves patterns and she loves things that are a little bit different! Welsh designer Sadie Hawker has created an exciting, luxe jewellery collection for lovers of vibrant colour, exotic print and intricate craftsmanship. Sadie's never been shy about experimenting with fashion and is a fan of shoes, handbags, and of course, jewellery - things that can transform an outfit from nay to yay instantly! Her search for well-made statement pieces that "not everyone" was wearing led her to making her own jewellery whilst living in New Zealand. She enjoyed it so much that it quickly grew into an obsession, and she was soon stocked in several cool, independent stores across the country - her very first was Rex Royale, on Cuba Street in Wellington! After several successful years sharing her love of bright statement jewels down under, Sadie returned to her home hemisphere. Shh by Sadie is now stocked in NZ, UK, USA, Portugal, Australia, Hong Kong and Guadaloupe. Sadie creates statement pieces for you to have fun with, that give you confidence, put a spring in your step and bring your outfit to life! Her designs reflect Sadie's love of playful, colourful statement jewellery that will last longer than one season and be mixed and matched for years to come. She wears her jewellery every day, and hopes you will too! Sadie enjoys using traditional bead looming techniques, crystals and chains to create her unique pieces. She hunts down limited stashes of vintage beads, chains and embellishments, and so Shh by Sadie pieces are often one of a kind or limited edition.

Leah McKeague Soul Embodiment Coach

leah mckeague soul embodiment coach

This isn’t about fixing yourself. It’s about remembering who you’ve always been. I’m Leah — Soul Embodiment Coach, intuitive guide, and space-holder for women who are ready to come home to themselves. For most of my life, I lived from the outside in. Silencing my truth to stay safe. Tending to everyone else’s needs before my own. Ignoring the whispers of my body… until they became screams. Chronic illness, burnout, people-pleasing, and deep disconnection were the wake-up calls I didn’t see coming — but they cracked me open. My path led me through shadow work, womb healing, nervous system repair, and deep reclamation of the feminine. I learned to listen inward. To feel. To unravel the layers of conditioning I’d been carrying for far too long. And what I discovered was this: I was never broken. I was simply disconnected from my own truth. Now, my work is devoted to guiding other women back to themselves — Not through quick fixes or surface solutions, But through deep, embodied, lasting transformation. I hold sacred spaces for women who are done with living in survival mode… Women who are ready to soften, to trust, and to reclaim their power from within. Through intuitive coaching, shadow alchemy, somatic practices, and soul-led ritual, I guide you to:     •    Reconnect to your body’s wisdom     •    Release outdated patterns of people-pleasing, self-silencing, and unworthiness     •    Rewire your relationship with self-trust, safety, and inner power     •    Remember the wholeness that has always lived inside you This work isn’t about perfection. It’s about honesty, depth, and devotion to yourself. It’s for the woman who is ready to rise — Not by becoming someone else, But by finally becoming fully, unapologetically herself. If you’re feeling the call… You already know this work is for you. Welcome home. ✧ My Approach:     •    Rooted in nervous system safety, intuition, and spiritual depth     •    Trauma-informed, compassionate, and non-judgemental     •    A blend of soulful coaching, embodiment, shadow work, and ritual     •    Honouring your unique pace, capacity, and truth ✧ A Few Things I Believe:     •    You are not here to be fixed.     •    You don’t need to earn your worth.     •    Your body is not your enemy — it’s your greatest guide.     •    Your power was never lost — it’s been waiting for you to reclaim it. Ready to begin? You don’t need to do this alone. I’m here to walk beside you.

Cranbrook School

Cranbrook

Cranbrook is a genuinely unique place. It is a co-educational grammar school in the heart of the glorious Wealden countryside. It is one of only a small number of state boarding schools in the UK. And it is an ancient school, founded in 1518 and given its royal charter by Elizabeth I in 1574. Our students thrive thanks to the breadth and challenge of our curriculum, and our emphasis on growing character as much as minds. We balance a traditional academic curriculum with a busy co-curriculum of competitive sport, music, drama, CCF, DofE and student-led societies. Opportunities for independent thought and leadership are many – particularly for senior pupils, who benefit from the social and academic buzz to be found in our new Sixth Form Centre. Our academic results are consistently among the best for state schools in the country, and our leavers head to a variety of top destinations, including Oxbridge and many Russell Group universities. Our 240 boarders give us a rare and special dimension among grammar schools. Their experience in our boarding family is happy and vibrant thanks to the excellent accommodation in our six Houses, our skilled, dedicated House teams, and an extensive programme of activities. Our boarders hail from the UK and overseas and enrich our community with different cultures and perspectives. We are proud to celebrate and promote them all across the School. Cranbrook is a beautiful place to live and grow up. With 75 acres of our own green space on the site, we are an integral part of the aerial patchwork of the Weald’s Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty – it’s fantastic for the wellbeing of both students and staff. We are half an hour from the coast, and not much further from London and its airports.

Canbury School Limited

canbury school limited

Canbury is a happy, purposeful place of personal discovery for students aged 11 to 18. The ethos of the School is that great minds do not all think alike and we have established a reputation for delivering a first class, personalised education to students of all academic abilities. Excellent progress is made here because every young person is treated as an individual. Our recently opened Sixth Form provides the opportunity for students to continue to benefit from Canbury support in preparation for adult life and we are delighted to see them go on to university or college. However, the journey is just as important as the destination and so, from the outset, we focus on the whole child with emphasis placed on emotional and social development as well as academic achievement. We are committed to ensuring that our students are prepared for the future – able to step forward to take their place in the world. In our last inspection, it was noted that, “Pupils throughout the School persevere to solve problems supported by teachers and learning support assistants who establish high expectations and promote a ‘can do’ attitude”. As a relatively new school, founded in 1982, Canbury is able to adopt a progressive approach to teaching and learning, taking our cue from best practice and research. This ‘clean slate’ means that we are not hidebound by tradition; rather, we are able to create the most meaningful opportunities for our students, led by their strengths, needs and skills. We are proud of our broad curriculum, the wide range of qualifications we offer and the support we are able to provide through small group teaching and, where appropriate, specialist therapists or learning support assistants. All of this is delivered by dedicated and expert staff, underpinned by an exceptionally strong pastoral approach that places the young person’s wellbeing front and centre.

This is the badge of excellence for our sector, a quality assurance programme co-delivered with UK Youth and recognised by City and Guilds, local authorities and funders.
