I think you're right. I call your attention to Chamber of Secrets, Hardback Page 94 (Midway through Chapter 6). Justin Finch-Fletchley says: "My name was down for Eton, you know... of course, Mother was slightly disappointed, but since I made her read Lockhart's books, I think she's begun to see how useful it'll be to have a fully trained wizard in the family..."

At first, I thought this meant there were other wizarding schools in England, that Eton was just another one. Not so, I learned. I'm sure the Brits might have known this, but for all the Americans, click here. 

As you can see, Eton is just your normal muggle boarding school. A really cool one, though.

Just thought I'd say...
