The Skinners' Company's School for Girls (Szkoła dla Dziewcząt Cechu/Gildii Skórników)
Explanation:
Do tego cechu należą kuśnierze, garbarze i inni rzemieślnicy zajmujący się skórami, więc proponuję ogólną nazwę (według słownika kościuszkowskiego).

The Worshipful Company of Skinners (known as The Skinners' Company) is one of the Livery Companies of the City of London. It was originally an association of furriers respectively skinners. It has evolved into an educational and charitable institution, supporting schools such as Tonbridge School in Tonbridge, Kent; The Skinners School in Tunbridge Wells Kent; The Judd School (also in Tonbridge) and The Skinners' Company's School for Girls in Hackney, London.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worshipful_Company_of_Skinners

The 108 Livery Companies are trade associations based in the City of London, almost all of which are known as the "Worshipful Company of" the relevant trade or profession. The Livery Companies originally developed as guilds and were responsible for the regulation of their trades, controlling, for instance, wages and labour conditions. Some Livery Companies (for example, the Scriveners) continue to have a regulatory role today, and some (for example, the Longbow Makers) have become inoperative except as charitable foundations. Most Livery Companies, particularly those formed in recent years, are primarily charitable organizations. The active Livery Companies also play an important part in social life and networking in the City of London. They have a long history of cultural patronage.

Polangmar, jak powszechnie widać, ma zasady ;-) polemizowałbym jednak z jakoby obowiązującą regułą tłumaczenia wszystkich przetłumaczalnych nazw (czy Visa Ltd. stanie się nawet tylko w nawiasie Wizą)
oczywiście w nawiasie albo w przypisach można dołączyć bardziej wyjaśnienie niż tłumaczenie, ale raczej nazw się nie tłumaczy

disagree  Polangmar: To jest pójście na łatwiznę - dlaczego czytelnik w ogóle nieznający angielskiego nie miałby dowiedzieć, o co chodzi w tej nazwie? Zasada jest taka, że przetłumaczalne nazwy instytucji typu szkoły, uniwersytety należy zawsze tłumaczyć (choćb
