'Great Ballard School is a co-educational independent school for children aged 2 to 13 years.〔(Great Ballard School inspection report, OFSTED, 13 October 2008. )〕 It was founded in 1924 and set up at its current location in Eartham, Near Chichester, West Sussex, in 1961. The school offers boarding on a flexible basis for both boys and girls.〔 The headmaster is Richard Morgan. In order to be enrolled, prospective students must go through an interview and a written test before being accepted. For the 2009 school year, the enrollment costs were 3,000-10,800 pound sterling annually, along with optional weekly boarding costing 12,975 pounds sterling.〔 ==Eartham House== The school's main building, Eartham House, was originally built in 1800 and was occupied by the poet William Hayley. The house was subsequently purchased by William Huskisson, a prominent nineteenth-century politician who was a member of parliament for Chichester and served in the governments of Lord Liverpool and the Duke of Wellington. Huskisson, despite his high-profile political career, is best remembered for the tragic manner of his death – he was run over by George Stephenson's locomotive engine The Rocket at the opening of the Liverpool to Manchester railway line in 1830.〔(Eartham House, West Sussex Info )〕 Eartham House was entirely rebuilt in 1905 by the architect Sir Edwin Lutyens, but some Regency decorations and fireplaces are still retained in one room. The house was listed as a Grade II listed building by English Heritage in 1958.〔(Eartham House, listing on Images of England website. )〕
