Eleanor Roosevelt attended Allenswood (boarding school just outside London, England) at 15 years of age, in the early 1900s, for about 4 years. It was at Allenswood, under the guidance of Mlle. Marie Souvestre that she overcame her timidity and shyness and became a confident, brave, compassionate young adult who grew to champion the poor and disadvantaged.
