Thorold Coade

Thorold Francis Coade (1896-1963)[1] was a British school teacher and headmaster.[2][3][4]

Thorold Coade was headmaster at Bryanston School in Dorset for much of his career (1932–1959), succeeding J. G. Jeffreys.[2][5] He believed in self-discipline and developed this ethos at the school.[2] He developed "pioneering" at the school to augment sports, consisting of community-related activities, such as forestry in the extensive grounds of the school. Coade was keen on drama and the school's theatre is named the Coade Hall in his memory.
