	Uppingham - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Uppingham is a small market town in the county of Rutland in the East Midlands of England.
		Uppingham is notable as the home of Uppingham School, an independent school founded in the 16th century, and twinned with Oakham School near by.
		Until 1834 it was a parish workhouse, but in 1836 the Uppingham Poor Law Union began, and a Union workhouse was built to the south of the town, by architect William J Donthorn, designed to house 158 people.

	Uppingham School - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	History of Oakham School
		According to Johnson's statutes for the school, 'the schoolmaster shall teach all those grammar scholars that are brought up in Oakham, freely without pay, if their parents be poor and not able to pay, and keep them constantly to school'.
		Of course, although the schooling was free, permanent attendance meant the loss to a family of an income, so not many very poor would have attended, or wanted the education.
		In 1749 a case involving payment of rates recorded that 'the school of Uppingham is not nor hath been of equal repute with that of Oakham.' However, while Uppingham flourished in the second half of the nineteenth century, Oakham did not.

		Moeran was always full of enthusiasm for his old school, and for what we were able to do by way of starting him on his musical career.
		In his school days (Sept. '08 - July '12) that opportunity, though firmly based on a unique tradition, was more confined in scope than it is now.
		For example, it was not until two years after Moeran left that we had an organ in chapel worthy of the name; music lessons (until Jan. 1911) were given at all hours of the day in a dimly gas-lit cottage; gramophone and wireless were non-existent; music competitions and societies were yet to come.

		It also omitted the City of London School, another day school, which derived from a medieval foundation of 1442, was reconstituted by a private Act of Parliament in 1835, and was held to be a public school by the Divisional Court in the case of Blake v City of London (1886).
		While, under the best circumstances, these schools were superb examples of education, the reliance on corporal punishment and the prefect system could also make them a cruel and hostile environment.
		Independent schools argue that they are charitable and educational foundations which do not seek profits; many schools raise money for charities, encourage their pupils to take up community service, and lease their facilities to the public.

	Football - Facts, Information, and Encyclopedia Reference article
		Each school drafted their own rules as they saw fit and they often varied widely and were changed over time with each new intake of pupils.
		In 1823 William Webb Ellis, a pupil at Rugby School, is said to have "showed a fine disregard for the rules of football, as played in his time" by picking up the ball and running to the opponents' goal, but the evidence for this bold act does not stand up to close examination.
		Whilst local rules for athletics and some other sports with simple rules could be easily understood by visiting schools, it was nearly impossible for schools to play each other at football as each school played by their own idiosyncratic rules.

		When the cheers for "Uppingham" and our answering cheers for "Borth" had rung out across the sands to seaward, there was an interval, filled up with songs by the children, while they waited the arrival of the spokesmen, whom they had charged with their valediction.
		He owed the Uppingham people no ill-feeling, but if a case of smallpox, the cholera, or some other virulent disease broke out in that place and prevented the return of the school, he was sure that Borth people would not feel at all sorry.

		The proposed experiment—to transport a large public school from its native seat and all its appliances and plant to a strange site of which not even the name was yet known, except as one of several possible spots, and to do this at a few days’ notice—was no doubt a novel one.
		We believe that the first piece of school property which arrived on the scene was the big roller from the cricket-field.

	Hinton, Charles Howard (1853-1907)
		An English-born mathematician best known for his writings and inventions aimed at helping to visualize the fourth dimension; he may also have coined the name tesseract for the four-dimensional analogue of a cube.
		Hinton matriculated at Oxford and continued to study there, earning a B.A. (1877) and an M.A. (1886), while he also taught, first at Cheltenham Ladies' School and then, from 1880 to 1886, at Uppingham School.
		At this time, another teacher at Uppingham was Howard Candler, who was a friend of Edwin Abbott and thus provides a possible link between these two explorers of other dimensions.
