The school was previously named after Sir John Cass but was renamed The Aldgate School in September 2020 in the light of Cass's links with the Atlantic slave trade.{{Cite news|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-london-53985187|title=School changes name 'due to slavery links'|work=BBC News |date=2 September 2020}}
