Carmel College was founded in 1948 as a British, Jewish boarding school for boys, modelled on British public schools. In later years it was, to some extent, co-educational, and there were a few non-Jewish day pupils. It closed down in 1997.

Carmel College alumni are known as "Old Carmelis"; in 1973 the school was referred to as the "Jewish Eton"[1] by The Observer correspondent, Chaim Bermant.
