The '''Esoteric School of Theosophy''' (abbreviated '''E.S.''' or '''E.S.T.''') was founded in [[w:London|London]] in 1888 by [[H. P. Blavatsky]] as a separate body alongside and nominally independent of the [[Theosophical Society]] for a select circle of esoteric students. After Blavatsky's death on 8 May 1891, the direction of the school passed to [[William Quan Judge]] and [[Annie Besant]] on 27 May 1891.

From 1904 [[Rudolf Steiner]] established an [[Esoteric School]] ([[ES]]) in [[w:Germany|Germany]] for a close circle of students, which was initially still affiliated to the Esoteric School of Theosophy. In 1907, at the [[Munich Congress of the Thesosophical Society]], this attachment to the London School was severed amicably and with the full agreement of Annie Besant. With the outbreak of [[w:World War I|World War I]], Steiner dissolved this school; a reconstitution did not take place until the [[Christmas Conference]] of 1923/24 in the form of the First Class of the [[School of Spiritual Science]].
