Reading Abbey Girls' School, also known as Reading Ladies’ Boarding School, was an educational establishment in Reading, Berkshire open from at least 1755 until 1794. Many of its pupils went on to make a mark on English culture and society, particularly as writers. The most famous is Jane Austen, who used the school as a model of "a real, honest, old-fashioned Boarding-school".
