What is recorded here

This blue commemorative plaque records: The Grammar School. A school was established within the Minster in about 1265, teaching Latin (the language of public administration) to all pupils from 6 - 18 years, and Song to the choristers. The present two schoolrooms date from Tudor times and were still in use until 1925. It was one of the last endowed schools in East Yorkshire. Recorded plaque organisation: Howden Civic Society, Supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund.
