<P> Henry Moseley had been a very promising schoolboy at Summer Fields School ( where one of the four ' leagues ' is named after him ) , and he was awarded a King 's scholarship to attend Eton College . In 1906 he won the chemistry and physics prizes at Eton . In 1906 , Moseley entered Trinity College of the University of Oxford , where he earned his bachelor 's degree . Immediately after graduation from Oxford in 1910 , Moseley became a demonstrator in physics at the University of Manchester under the supervision of Sir Ernest Rutherford . During Moseley 's first year at Manchester , he had a teaching load as a graduate teaching assistant , but following that first year , he was reassigned from his teaching duties to work as a graduate research assistant . He declined a fellowship offered by Rutherford , preferring to move back to Oxford , in November 1913 , where he was given laboratory facilities but no support . </P>
