St Paul's School is a selective independent day school (with limited boarding) for boys aged 13–18,[1] founded in 1509 by John Colet[2] and located on a 43-acre[3][4] site by the Thames in London.[5][6]
St Paul's was one of nine English public schools investigated by the Clarendon Commission, which subsequently became known as the Clarendon schools.[7][8] However, the school successfully argued that it was a private school[9] and consequently was omitted from the Public Schools Act 1868,[10] as was Merchant Taylors', the other day school within the scope of Lord Clarendon's terms of reference.[11] Since 1881, St Paul's has had its own preparatory school, St Paul's Juniors (formerly Colet Court), which since 1968 has been located on the same site.[2]
The school is included in The Schools Index as one of the world's 150 best private schools and among top 30 UK senior schools.[12]
