Boarding school - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Boarding schools are sometimes referred to as public schools in the UK and as "private school" in American English. |
 | | Many boarding schools are self-contained within their own walls, while others such as Eton and Westminster have buildings and grounds in various streets in the neighbourhood of the school. |
 | | Most societies decline to take boarding schools as the preferred option for the upbringing of their children, except in British societies or in its former colonies; in England, India, and former African colonies of Great Britain, for example, boarding schools are one of the preferred modes of education. |
