Around a third of our boarders are from Forces families. Our Forces parents are serving across the UK and internationally, including a large number from our nearby RAF bases Wittering, Waddington, Molesworth and Alconbury. We work with military families to ensure you can see your child when you return from deployment – be that to take your child out to lunch, go out in the evenings, or have a weekend visit.
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. For families in receipt of the MOD discount, we offer further financial support to you, so you only pay 10% of our fees.
