Eton College ( EE-tən) is an English public school (a fee-charging boarding school) providing education for boys aged 13–18, located in Eton, Berkshire. The school was founded in 1440 by Henry VI as Kynge's College of Our Ladye of Eton besyde Windesore, and is the largest boarding school in England.
Eton is known for its history, wealth, and notable alumni (Old Etonians), having been referred to as "the nurse of England's statesmen". It is also one of three public schools (the others being Harrow and Radley) to have retained a boys-only, boarding-only tradition.
The school is part of the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference and the Eton Group.
