Magdalen College School is an independent school for boys aged 7 to 18 and girls in the sixth form, located on The Plain in Oxford, England. It was founded as part of Magdalen College, Oxford, by William Waynflete in 1480. ''The Good Schools Guide'' described the school as having "A comfortable mix of brains, brawn and artistic flair but demanding and challenging too," adding, "Not what you might expect a boys' public school to look like or feel like." The school was named Independent School of the Year by the Sunday Times in 2004 and in 2008, the first boys' school to achieve this award twice. ==Overview== The school is run by a Headmaster (known at Magdalen since the foundation of the school as simply "the Master") and a Board of Governors, who appoint the Master. It has both a senior school and a junior school. It contains 6 houses in the Senior School each headed by a housemaster, selected from the more senior members among the teaching staff, who number approximately 160. There are also six separate houses in the Junior School. Almost all of the school's pupils go on to universities, and about a third of them to Oxford or Cambridge.〔http://www.mcsoxford.org/page.aspx?id=164〕 The Master, Dr Tim Hands, is a member of the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference denoting the school as a public school in the modern usage of the term. Dr Hands has announced his departure from the post at the end of the 2015/16 academic year. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Magdalen College School, Oxford」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
