Boarding Schools

Boarding Schools

England has a tradition of boarding schools, unique in the world, offering the best education, sporting facilities and pastoral care.

There are many options, including:

  • Prep Schools: Ages 8 – 13 years
  • Type of School: Co-ed, boys/girls only
  • Different religions
  • Some schools have both a Prep and a Senior school
  • Senior Schools: Ages: 11/13 – 18 years
  • Type of School: Co-ed, boys/girls only
  • Different religions

For someone not familiar with the system it can be confusing and difficult to know which school to choose.

We have an extensive first-hand knowledge of the British boarding system and work with many of the top boarding schools in the UK.

We would always recommend sending your child to school for at least a year to immerse them fully in the English Language and into the environment. However, we are also able to organise shorter stays.
