Eden Academy is regarded as the top school in the nation. It has a student body of roughly 2500, ranging from ages 6 to 19 with a curriculum spanning 13 grades. The grades are divided into three stages: primary school for students from years 1 to 6, middle school for students from years 7 to 10, and high school for students from years 11 to 13.

Its strict education and that many of its students and alumni come from families with prominent status have made it extremely desirable for families to enrol their children. Some parents even offer "donations" to enrol their children or buy good grades, but it has been made clear that the headmaster and school administration are not easily bought.

There is a gulf between alumni families and first-generation students that leads to bullying and discrimination in the student body. The tuition fees for Eden are very expensive, as well as the cost of school uniforms. Due to the presumed wealth of families in Eden Academy, kidnapping students is a common occurrence, to the point that families enrolling in the school are warned of it by those who work closely with Eden.

Students are divided into dormitory boarders and commuters. Those of them who do not stay in the school dormitories travel to school by bus or in their own chauffeured car.

There are a total of eight classes for each year: Specter Hall, Cline Hall, Cecile Hall, Wald Hall, Malcom Hall, Hamilton Hall, Villiers Hall, and Rose Hall
