Framed Print of The late Miss Frances M. Buss, 1895. Creator: Unknown
The late Miss Frances M. Buss, 1895. Photo by Lambert. Hundreds of "Old Girls" of the school that Miss Buss has conducted continuously ever since 1850 will regret to hear of her death...Miss Buss...had to face...the problem of how women could earn a livelihood. It was then still traditional that a woman who needed employment should be a teacher...happily, Frances Buss...was imbued with the highest ideal of the possibilities of, educating her sex...it was in 1853 that the first girls high school was opened, it being the institution that rapidly developed into Queen's College, and has grown to be chiefly used for young women...the title of "Queen's" was given to that pioneer school by the special permission of our dear and noble Sovereign... Miss Buss established the higher education of girls on a business basis...[She obtained] large benefactions for her new buildings and for scholarships from the Endowed Charities Commissioners and the City Companies...Miss Buss received probably the largest salary ever paid to a woman teacher. Her girls have done credit to this help, having from the very inception of public examinations for women been well to the front in honours, and making further progress after going from her to the Cambridge colleges'.
