City of London School for Boys
The City of London School, also known as CLS, is an independent day school for boys in the City of London, England, on the banks of the River Thames next to the Millennium Bridge. It is the brother school of the City of London School for Girls and a member of the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference (HMC).
The School was founded by a private Act of Parliament in 1834, following a bequest of land in 1442 for poor children in the City of London. The original school was established at Milk Street, moving to the Victoria Embankment in 1879 and its present site on Queen Victoria Street in 1986.
The school provides day education to about 900 boys aged 10 to 18 and employs approximately 100 teaching staff and around another 100 non-teaching staff. The majority of pupils enter at 11, some at 13 and some at 16 into the Sixth form. There is a small intake at 10 into Old Grammar, a year group consisting of two classes equivalent to primary school Year 6. Admissions are based on an entrance examination and an interview.
