A 'public school' in Victorian England was, ironically, what we would refer to today as a 'private school' - i.e. a fee paying independent school. Some of the great public schools of the Victorian era, all of which still exist today, are Eton, Harrow, Rugby, Repton, Christs Hospital and Westminster. The schools listed are still referred to as 'public schools' and not private schools. There is a subtle difference between the two.
