The three azure (blue) martlets are heraldic swallows, depicted without feet because of a medieval belief that they could not perch on the ground and are often found as a representation of effort in arms of educational establishments.

The gold fleur-de-lys and portcullis are emblems of King Henry VIII, who re-founded the school in 1545, and the Bear and Ragged Staff have been the crest of the family of the Earl of Warwick since at least the 14th century.[109]
