A selection of the very best British boarding schools for international students, with guaranteed entry for select students
The English Education Guaranteed Boarding Schools have been selected because they offer:
- a high-quality education for all their pupils, irrespective of nationality and culture;
- value-adding academic provision, where ethos, teaching styles, assessment and academic monitoring encourage all pupils to perform at levels above and beyond their baseline performance. Value-added feedback is a fair measure of the progress that students have made and rather than relying solely on exam results, it takes account of where each student’s starting point and identifies progress they have made relative to other, similar students;
- structured EAL (English as an additional language) support;
- internationally recognised qualifications; all offer GCSEs and/or iGCSEs and A Levels and/or IB qualifications;
- a strong and sustainable cohort of boarding students. With an appropriate proportion of the total school roll made up of boarding students, full boarding is central - weekends see a good proportion of pupils staying on site, resulting in a strong seven day a week boarding community;
- places for boarders from outside the European Community and are not state-boarding schools;a commitment to meeting the needs of all students through a broad dietary provision.
