Harrow College, located in the northwest corner of London, is one of the famous public schools with a long history in Britain. It was founded in 1572 by John Lyon, a local farmer in Harrow. Its original purpose was to provide local boys with educational opportunities, but after hundreds of years of development and evolution, Harrow College today is one of the most prestigious private schools in Britain, and most of them are enrolled by rich children from outside the region. Therefore, Harrow College set up another John Lyon School at 1870 to recruit local students.
