I have two boys at EH the Manor, both came through the pre-prep and now in the prep. One of the best features of the school is that it is (as much as anywhere) a true corner of traditional England, not euro trashy at all! The boys are from good backgrounds but are not at all flashy or superior and neither are the parents on the whole - that is one of the benefits of being away from the Chelsea, Notting Hill and Belgravia crowds. It is just a fantastic, traditional English boys' prep school, with a small and close knit school community - in my view the best of its kind in London. If you want kudos, celebs and money, go to Wetherby (also a great school btw!), but if you want the best of traditional England, go here. (Ps., we only considered a switch to Colet, but that's a different kettle of fish altogether and my boys love where they are so we decided against, although I am hoping they will go to St Paul's at 13). Hope that helps! Feel free to PM me.
