Have always thought in poor families, education especially for girls was pretty rare, but have found what think is my Grandmother in school. The school was The Orange St. School Southwark, this surprised me and was even more surprised at the age she would have been, her age would have been 3. Unfortunately my Ancestry sub has just lapsed (was going to take a break from hobby for a while) the year record shown is 1892 (can see that but not record) and she was born 1st Apr 1889.
Could this be right, googled the school and it has a very interesting history, wondered if any others had come across something similar or any knowledge of it happerning.
