United Services College

The United Services College was an English boys' public school for the sons of military officers and civil servants, located from 1874 at Westward Ho!

In his book Schooldays with Kipling (1936), George Beresford noted that as the villas and hotels of Westward Ho!

were not a thriving township, it was easy for the school to lease "ample acreage for football and cricket fields".

[4] Cormell Price retired as headmaster in 1894, and this event was marked by a speech by Kipling, already the most notable former pupil, on 25 July 1894.

Only temporary arrangements were made at first , while the Imperial Service College Trust raised funds.

[11] In April 1906 came an announcement that the Senior Division, still under F. W. Tracy, was to move to Onslow Hall, Richmond Green, on 4 May.
