Detailed description is Hele's School was a boys' grammar school, and latterly a comprehensive school, in the city of Exeter, Devon, England.Elize Hele’s bequestElize Hele was born in 1560 at Winston Manor near Plympton, Devon. He was a lawyer of the Inner Temple in London, had been treasurer to James I and was a major property owner in South and West Devon. Following the death of his only child, Walter, at the age of 11, Hele decided to bequeath a number of his estates for “some godly purposes and charitable uses”. He died in 1635 and was buried in Exeter Cathedral.In 1656 his trustees, Sir John Maynard and Elize Stert apportioned money for the foundation of the Blue Maid's Hospital (later renamed The Maynard School) and, in 1658 for the establishment of Hele's School in Plympton.For nearly 200 years, the immediate descendants of Sir J. Maynard received the remaining income from the bequest and distributed it to private charities as they thought fit Legal proceedings resulted in depriving the descendant of Sir J. Maynard (the surviving trustee) of all control over the funds, which were thereupon vested in the Crown.The first schoolThe Government made to the inhabitants of Exeter a grant of £1500 for the building of a boys' school, with a further £300 a year for its continual maintenance.
