City of London School

City of London School, or CLS for short, is an independent boys' school located on the banks of the River Thames, at the edge of the City of London in London, United Kingdom. It is the sister school of the City of London Freemen's School (a co-educational school located in Surrey) and the City of London School for Girls (a girls' school located within the Barbican Estate complex). Intake is from age 7 to 18, though many of its pupils enter at 11, and similarly join other independent schools for the sixth form (17-18).

Former pupils include chess GrandMaster Luke McShane, historian and essayist John Robert Seeley, Prime Minister Herbert Asquith and writer Kingsley Amis. Current pupils include Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe, James Abbott, son of Diane Abbott MP, and Alexander Keynes, great grandson of economist John Maynard Keynes.
