Forces Boarding

Social Programme

A busy and active social programme will enable your child to have as full a life as they would if they were at home with you.  We encourage them to visit friends, or if they want, to stay overnight with other day pupils or go out to events outside the school.  Boarders develop strong friendship groups. They can socialise in the town of Stamford, take part in sports or club activities, exercise in the gym, and go on weekend trips.

Pastoral Care

Pastoral care is offered by our boarding house team, including House Parents, Tutors, Matrons and teachers. Additional support is provided by the Chaplain, and the School counsellors, who can give your child help and guidance.

Living in Stamford

Stamford is a beautiful and safe Georgian town known for its historic buildings and copious shops and cafes. Boarders and their friends can enjoy their downtime in the town center, which is just a few minutes walk from our boarding houses.

There’s a good array of shopping and eateries, ranging from smaller independents to more mainstream, well known brands. The Schools are a well-respected part of the local community, giving boarders the opportunity to become involved with local businesses on community-led projects, charitable events and fundraisers.

CEA

We have a great deal of experience with Continuation of Education Allowance (CEA) applications and are happy to help forces families through this process. Our families only pay the minimum CEA fee on the child’s place at the school.
