All of the schools were ordered to abandon the practice of exchanging information on their planned fees. Combined scholarships of up to 40% are available. Governing body More than half of the school's governing body represent the Worshipful Company of Fishmongers, who have been the school's trustees since 1555. The chairman of governors (currently Michael Goff) was until recently always a past or present prime warden of the Fishmongers' Company. A previous chairman was David Cairns, 5th Earl Cairns, after whom the school's Cairns Centre is named. The present prime warden, Sir Richard Carew Pole, is also a governor.

The clerk of the Fishmongers' Company also acts as clerk to the governing body, and its meetings are held at Fishmongers' Hall in the City of London.

The first Royal Exchange was profusely decorated with grasshoppers.

Although this is a beautiful story, it is more likely that the grasshopper is simply an heraldic rebus on the
