=> Congratulations to the 1st XI this weekend in the annual Eton v Harrow cricket match at Lord’s. Aggressive bowling from Eton restricted Harrow to 161 all out, with Varma the pick of the bowlers returning figures of 11-2-16-3. Eton batted powerfully with Weir (60) and Beagles (47 no) leading Eton to victory with just over 12 overs to spare.

We were founded to offer transformative educational opportunities to boys with limited life chances, and we have held to this offer ever since. Currently we have 90 boys in the school who pay no fees at all: and we aim to raise this number to 140 within the next five years.
We are an integrated part of the local community and the wider education sector. Our partnership with Holyport College, an Ofsted outstanding state-maintained boarding school is one of the strongest, closest and most reciprocal partnership of any cross-sector relationship in the UK.
Over 2,000 pupils per year visit Eton to benefit from our museums and collections, and we co-sponsor the London Academy of Excellence, an outstanding sixth form in Newham, East London.
Come and visit our College Collections
Each year, our free museums, galleries, historic spaces and reading rooms welcome thousands of visitors.
COVID-19 Update
EtonX online Future Skills courses have been updated for 2021 and are available free of charge to all UK state schools. Teachers should visit https://etonx.com/uk-schools-offer/… to find out more.
We regret that it is currently not possible for prospective parents and their sons to visit Eton in person ahead of registration. However, a 45-minute Admissions webcast can be accessed by contacting our Admissions team.
We expect that our museums and galleries will reopen in July, subject to the latest Government advice.
