Eton Group
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Eton Group consists of twelve British independent schools:
- Eton College
- Bryanston School, Blandford
- Dulwich College
- Highgate School
- King's College School, Wimbledon
- The King's School, Canterbury
- Marlborough College, Wiltshire
- St Paul's School
- Sherborne School
- Tonbridge School
- University College School, Hampstead
- Westminster School
- St Aloysius School
Heads of the academic departments meet annually in rotation to discuss curriculum matters of common interest. In 2005, the Office of Fair Trading concluded after a two year investigation that the Eton Group had operated as a fee-fixing cartel in breach of competition law. The bursar of Eton College, Andrew Wynn, was quoted as saying: “We do meet and talk about fees to get some idea of what other schools are thinking. We are a co-operative bunch and we are not out to slit each other’s throats.”[citation needed]
The Eton group has links to the Rugby Group and Haileybury Group of Independent Schools.
