Ellen Constance "Connie" Nightingale (1892-1967) was a leading advocate for women's rights and, in an age when girls' education was given scant attention, for the education of girls. Headmistress of Dr. Williams' School, Dolgellau (1924-40) and The Mount School, York (1940-8), she drove these schools forward, increasing student and staff numbers, broadening the curriculum, and alerting young women to events and cultural attitudes in the wider world, as well as career opportunities.
