Royal Academy, Gosport : ウィキペディア英語版 | Burney's Academy
Dr. Burney's Academy, founded 1791 by Dr. William Burney (1762 – December 1832), was a preparatory school or "crammer" in Gosport, Hampshire, England, whose aim was to prepare young men for the Royal Navy's entrance examinations and a naval career, though many of its students went on to Army or civilian careers.〔 ==History==
On the death of Burney, his son Henry took over running of the school, followed by Henry's brother Edward (c.1817-1888), then William's grandson the Rev. Edward Amyatt Amyatt Burney, who became Rector of Rowner, to the north-west of Gosport (1848–1920).〔( A. MacDermott’s three-page article “Dr Burney’s Royal Academy at Gosport”, The Mariner’s Mirror, February 1965. volume 51 p.57. )〕 The school was sold in 1889.〔 At some time before 1891 it received patronage of Queen Victoria, Prince Albert, the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Connaught, and was renamed the Royal Academy.〔 The Rev. F. G. Johnson was Head Master from 1888 until the school closed in 1904.〔
