Repton School

Derbyshire, United Kingdom · built 1908

Repton School is a 13–18 co-educational, private, boarding and day school in the public school tradition, in Repton, Derbyshire, England. Sir John Port of Etwall, on his death in 1557, left funds to create a grammar school which was then established at the Repton Priory. For its first 400 years, the school accepted only boys; girls were admitted from the 1970s, and the school was fully co-educational by the 1990s. Notable alumni, also known as "Old Reptonians", include C. B. Fry, Claude Guillebaud, Harold Abrahams, Christopher Isherwood, Jeremy Clarkson, Andy Wilman, Christopher Frayling, Roald Dahl, Adrian Newey and Lord Ramsey of Canterbury.
