		Preparatory schools (historically also known as private schools as they were usually privately owned by the headmaster) take children from the age of eight (or younger) and prepare them for their entrance exams to public schools.
		It also omitted the City of London School, another day school, which derived from a medieval foundation of 1442, was reconstituted by a private Act of Parliament in 1835, and was held to be a public school by the Divisional Court in the case of Blake v City of London (1886).

		The Royal Grammar School Worcester (RGS Worcester) is a British independent public school founded before 1291.It is in the north of the city and has its origins in the seventh century.
		The King's School Worcester was based on the former site of the Royal Grammar School, and to this day there still exists a level of rivalry between the two schools, which manifests itself most obviously at sports fixtures (mainly rugby) between the two schools.
		The school has close links with private schools in the local region due to its membership of the 'Monmouth Group', which is a collection of schools similar in aims and membership to that of the Eton Group.

	Spalding Grammar School
		Before his dissolution of the monasteries, the youth of Spalding received their education from the local priory, but with no royal funds forthcoming to provide a replacement, it fell to “charitably disposed persons” in the community to establish a school.
		There was, however, no building, so the school began in the upper floor (now demolished) of the St Thomas’s Chapel in the Parish Church, and remained there for nearly 300 years.
		The school gained pupils from Moulton Grammar School which closed in 1939, and was given Voluntary Aided status after the 1944 Education Act, a degree of independence it has retained to this day despite all the political machinations of the last thirty years.
