[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That sounds like the article on the Cotswalds I read in the Financial Times. I hope to visit there some day. I have fond memories hiking the famous Lake District back in high school. The English countryside is so beautiful. (What they call third through sixth form back in the UK I think? I always thought that was a strange system.) [/quote] My Virginia private has 1st-6th grade and then 1st-6th form. It also has a refectory and cloisters. The used to also have Prefects, though I think that is gone now. Some older private schools in various parts of the US still use the British setup and terminology. Cotswolds are indeed lovely. Most UK folks I know live in a village outside the big cities. They drive or train to work. I could never afford to live in the UK though. Food is so silly expensive there and the VAT on goods is almost 20%. A lovely fantasy a la Walter Mitty, I suppose. [/quote]
