Public schools

Contrariamente a quello che il loro nome sembrerebbe indicare, le public schools inglesi sono scuole private. Sono in genere frequentate dai figli della classe dirigente e dei ceti agiati in quanto il costo della retta è molto elevato, in particolar modo nelle più prestigiose (Eton, Harrow, Winchester, Rugby). Tuttavia queste scuole concedono iscrizioni gratuite o borse di studio agli allievi meritevoli e meno abbienti.
