Bishops College
Bishops Robert Gray arrived in 1848 as Cape Town’s first Anglican Archbishop, giving it its status as a city. The following year he founded a new school at Protea, calling it the Collegiate School of the Diocese of Cape Town. Today we call it Bishops.

The first Principal was the Reverend HM White, who came from Britain. He modeled Bishops on Radley which had been established a few years earlier.
