Their Future

Are you considering a boarding school education for your child?

Our website covers all aspects of boarding education, including funding, selecting a school, academic success, co-curricular opportunities, schools that specialise in art, music or dance, schools for children with special educational needs and disabilities, and sixth-form choices. You will find information about the range of boarding school options – full, weekly, flexible – and the variety of schools – boys only, girls only and co-educational.

Each child and each family will be looking for something different in a boarding school and we aim to include information on the whole gamut of provision. Boarding Schools lead the world in the quality of education and pastoral care they provide. We hope our website, and Guide, are a useful and informative resource in steering your search.

Boarding at Berkhamsted: A pupil perspective

My father is in the Army. I decided to come to Dauntsey’s and board when my sister, who is three years older than me, started boarding at The Manor, the Lower School boarding house. She told me stories about how wonderful it was and every time I visited it always seemed so homely.

Jemima, Dauntsey’s School

The achievements I have accomplished and watched others achieve at school are amazing. Dean Close has really made me feel proud of myself and more confident in what I can do.

Maddie, Dean Close School

I am so lucky to board at Port Regis. It has been fantastic for building my confidence, learning to follow timetables, making friends and learning new skills.
