Chester Cathedral Choir School was an private preparatory school for boys under the direct supervision of the Dean of Chester Cathedral providing choristers for the choir. The school was opened on the 26th November 1880 and closed at the end of summer term 1975.

History

The King's School was established a few years after the dissolution of the Bendictine Abbey in 1541 and located at Chester cathedral for most of its history.

The Endowed Schools Act 1869 removed some requirements for endowed grammar schools to have teachers licensed by the Church of England. However, consistent with the ancient practice of the King's School providing choristers for the cathedral, the Dean of Chester remained responsible for an endowment to the King's School. Following the King's School reorganisation under this act in 1873, in 1880, the new Chester Cathedral Choir School was established under the direct control of the Cathedral Dean and Chapter"Article".

The Cathedral Choir School was established (or "re-opened" as styled at the time), in 1880 following a period of significant improvements to both the fabric of the cathedral, and the quality of the music. Deans Anson and Howson oversaw the installation of the cathedral organ in 1875, rebuilding of the western part of Abbey Court (as it was known), and replacement of the old Bishop's Palace. At that time, the King's School moved into the new buildings from their ancient home in the original monks refectory, and the choir school was established in a small corner of the same new buildings.
