What is a boarding school?
A boarding school is a residential school, where most or all pupils live and study during the school term. The school provides accommodation for pupils, usually on the school grounds, and they attend the school for lessons during the day. Most of the accommodations are full board and will be provide at least two course meal (as per the dietary requirements).
Students aged 14 years+ who are wanting to study A levels, International Baccalaureate Diploma or a University Foundation Programme but are not old enough or do not have the right level of English language can start from two year GCSE course in 24 hour boarding supervision on full board basis.
