講多個有趣冷智識。1384年創立Winchester College嘅William of Wykeham（當時地位係Lord Chancellor，比首相權力更高，基本上係英皇之下最大權嘅人），其實係同時俾錢起咗Oxford嘅New College，當時佢已經決定Wincoll係New College嘅feeder school，所有Wincoll畢業生都直入New College。所以係佢決定Wincoll系統要mirror Oxford嘅college system。而後來Eton college同埋有類似聯繫嘅King's College Cambridge，都係因為Henry VI見到Wincoll + New College Oxford搞得有聲有色先喺60年後下令照抄先後興建。（所以冇Wincoll就冇Eton)
congrats on your unconditional offer. we got a provisional one.
you asked about Winchester too but the result will only be released in April/May right?
Yes seems so. But since there’s a deadline for tonbridge in mid March, wanna see if I can hv a more thorough understanding on both schools from different perspectives before initial payment. Good luck everyone for getting the best suitable schools for ur child!
