Year 9 to 11

YEAR 9 TO 11

Our pupils in Years 9 to 11 benefit from a full programme of academic studies and co-curricular activities, with something for everyone to get involved with.

*Weekly Boarding is Monday night to Friday night inclusive

For day pupils that would like to experience boarding, we offer up to 10 nights free of charge per year, subject to availability.  This allows pupils to make the most of being part of the boarding community and to experience the opportunities and increased  independence that this brings.  The fee rate for 3 night boarding is £13,695 for the term. 

Lunch, with a range of hot and cold meal options, is available each day and is billed as a termly compulsory fee of £340.  We have separated this fee to reduce the VAT burden. 

All pupils, whether day or boarding, can attend breakfast and supper, as well as snacks in the boarding houses and evening ‘In-House’ socials, which is included within the above fee. 

You can find out more about our catering provision here.

We encourage all pupils to be part of a sports team, as we recognise the importance of physical activity for wellbeing and the social benefits of being part of a team. Our fees include transport to and from fixtures and a huge variety of clubs and activities throughout the week ranging from pickleball to chess, gospel choir to gardening. They also include pupil attendance at school productions and concerts such as House Music and Longmead, subsidised Outdoor Education, and some trips throughout the year.

Our evenings and weekends are packed with activities and events for boarding and day pupils alike. We include activities on Saturday evenings, for example Band Night, Quiz Night and Ultimate Frisbee, to mention just a few. Each House celebrates a House Dinner each year, and the pupil cost is also included. There are also a wide variety of additional trips on a Sunday for which there is an additional charge.
