Moving son out of Eton to attend Harrow instead

Asking on behalf of a friend... has anyone ever moved there son to Harrow after a year or two at EC?

Parent in question would like her son to be less Eddy Redmayne and more Benedict Cumberbatch, although I’m unclear as to whether each are typical products of their respective schools. She feels EC has rather failed to develop her son in to a well rounded man like Benedict Cumberbatch, and instead is encouraging her son’s academic success to the detriment of all else.

Given the fierce rivalry between the schools, are transfers between them rare? Surely parents can make an honest mistake in choosing the wrong type of public school for their children.

Hi all,
We have reason to believe that this poster may not be entirely on the level so we've banned them. However... they were asking for a friend so just in case... we're happy enough not to delete so that the thread might stand to help the many other parents who find themselves in this sort of a pickle.
