Well you are both wrong!! From the Eton website - it's not really that hard to fact check these days.
School Fee (payable on the first day of term by direct debit)
Current school fee |
£14,167 per half [i.e. term; there are three terms in a year]. Bursaries are awarded by the Bursaries Committee as soon as a boy has been offered a conditional place at the school, which is approximately 18 months prior to his joining the school. All bursaries are means-tested.
|
King’s Scholars |
The maximum fee for King’s Scholars is 90% of the current school fee (recipients can also apply for a bursary for the remainder of the fee on a means-tested basis).
|
Music Scholars |
The maximum fee for Music Scholars is 90% of the current school fee (recipients can also apply for a bursary for the remainder of the fee on a means-tested basis).

Miscellaneous
Absentee Fee |
£14,167 per half

Withdrawal without due notice fee |
£14,167 per half

Extras
Music |
£320 per half for lessons totalling 30 minutes per week.
|
|
£480 per half for lessons totalling 45 minutes per week.
|
|
£640 per half for lessons totalling 60 minutes per week.

Other extras |
School extras are billed in arrears and the level of charges varies depending on the activities a boy does while at Eton. Extras can vary greatly but are usually between £500-£1,000 per half. A full list of possible additional charges is sent to parents at the start of the academic year.

So with extras maybe £15,000 per half team. So just the £90,000 per year then. So in my book that is imbecilic!
ROFL. Were you skiving during maths lessons?
Llamedos said £42,500 per annum. 3 x £14,167 is £42,500.
The extras are, unsurprisingly, optional and e x t r a.
That’s a Fail I’m afraid. Back for the re-sit.
