Try googling for it as the school is still going strong I think and they may have a website

Thanks GlitterBaby. That looks like the school, but there's not much about its history. Do they have a school archive?

Possibly Hackney Red Coat School. 1939 team

Maybe not Hackney but ? Red Coat School 1939


Administrative/Biographical history:
The Red Coat School, Stepney, has had various names including Stepney Parish Day Schools, Stepney Church School and the Charity School in the Hamlet of Mile End Old Town. It was established in 1714 by voluntary subscription for the clothing and education of a limited number of boys born within Mile End Old Town. The school-house was built on Stepney Green (though the boys were separately housed in Mile End Road for some time). In 1944 the school merged with the secondary department of the Cass School to become the Sir John Cass's Foundation and Red Coat School in Stepney Way.

My father attended RedCoat School in Stepney, London before WW II. I have a photo of what looks like the school football team for 1939. My father is holding a ball labelled "HRCS 1939". Can anyone shed any light.
