Makes sense. If you pull up the definition of “Chantry,” you’ll see that the “chantry priest” was paid by a deceased person’s estate to offer Masses for the soul of the donor. Once the priest had done that, he had time on his hands, so he might as well open a school, just to keep busy (and earn more money, of course ;-).
“Chantry priests” were also a feature in ancient Egypt, which might freak some people out.
