The King Alfred School is a co-educational independent day school in Golders Green in North West London. It was founded in London in 1898[2] by Charles E. Rice, a former teacher at Bedales School [citation needed]. The school was considered "radical" for its era, as it provided a secular education in a co-educational setting.[3]
