Full boarding
Pupils travel from the local area, further afield in the UK and from overseas to join our large and vibrant Boarding House communities. We have 300 full boarders who make 51³Ô¹ÏÍø School their home each term to benefit from all the opportunities on offer during the week and at the weekend. Lower School boarders live in the comfortable and homely surroundings of Hodges on the Jerwoods campus, while Middle and Upper School boarders live in 8 separate Boarding Houses.
Weekly boarding
Our weekly boarding provision is an increasingly popular choice for families living near or further afield looking to strike the perfect school/home balance and we have 230 pupils choosing this option.
In the Lower School we offer flexible boarding from two to five nights a week in Hodges on the Jerwoods campus and in the Middle and Upper School we offer weekly boarding of up to six nights a week.
With valuable time not being taken out of a student’s week for travelling to and from School, this is invested back into their work, rest and play, meaning they are able to spend more time doing what they love.
Day pupils
Our 500 day pupils are very much part of our 24/7 boarding environment, benefiting from the same extensive programme of activities and opportunities as our boarders, and belonging to their own large and vibrant House communities. We provide invaluable wraparound care with day pupils able to opt to arrive for breakfast at 7.30am and stay on for supper at no extra charge, which is particularly useful if they have Prep to complete or need to be in School for after school activities.
