	HOASM: The Eton Choirbook
		The Eton choirbook is by far the most important of the few English sources surviving from the first part of our period: in fact it is unquestionably one of the greatest monuments of English music in any age.
		In the 1490s the Eton manuscript cannot but have represented the summit of English musical endeavor; yet it cannot on the other hand have been quite the isolated achievement which it now appears to be.
		But it is clear from the distinctive character of the Eton style that by the 1470s at the latest (given William Horwood's death in 1484) English music was developing more or less in isolation from the 'mainstream' of activity in France and the Netherlands.

		Eton College was founded in 1440 by Henry VI as a charity school to provide free education to seventy poor students who would then go on to King's College, Cambridge, which he also founded, in 1441.
		The credibility for this is believed by some to be dubious: Wellington briefly attended Eton, for which he had no great love, in the late 18th century, when the school had no playing fields or organised team sports, and the phrase was first recorded three years after the Duke's death.

	Eton Fives - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Eton Fives, one code of the British game of Fives, is a hand-ball game, similar to Rugby Fives, played as doubles in a three-sided court.
		Eton fives is an uncommon sport, with only a few courts, most of them as part of the facilities of the Public Schools in the United Kingdom; consequently, it is primarily the preserve of their students.
		This shape of court originates from the space in Eton, in the lee of the chapel, where the game was first played.

		Eton told the tribunal that Forsyth simply wasn't up to the job and expressed concerns over her mental health, something that is understood to have deeply upset the junior art teacher.

		One can hardly criticise Eton's former headmaster Dr Eric Anderson (who once taught Tony Blair at Fettes) for driving it up to second place in the league table of independent schools, where it stood five years ago; for headmasters are duty-bound to promote academic achievement.
		Having done so well academically under him, Eton is now in danger of being judged, like other schools, by its academic performance rather than by its success in producing future leaders or - as the Sunday Telegraph put it in a leader last weekend - building "stout character and languid style" among its alumni.
		There was still beating and fagging at Eton in my day, and a host of pointless rules that had to be obeyed, but I somehow didn't feel even then that I was being groomed for leadership of any kind.
