Boarding prices
Our priority for pupils who are full or weekly boarding is to ensure they feel at home here. We facilitate this by offering every pupil who boards a reserved bed each night during term time. We also offer occasional boarding, where pupils have the option to stay over whenever there is an activity they want to join in with or whenever it suits them and their parents. It’s about offering our pupils every flexibility to enjoy the school facilities and activities once the school day is finished. While priority is naturally given to full boarders, we will do our best to accommodate any last-minute request to stay over from occasional/flexi boarders.
