How do I prepare for Boarding School?

Living away from family and home comforts can be daunting. Preparing for Boarding School is a vital step in making the transition easier. Talking to your children about how they can stay in touch with you can really help, while ensuring they pack the right things is vital. Prior to joining, children can come in for a Taster Stay, where they will have a Guardian from their Year group with similar interests to look after them. They will spend a day experiencing School life, including lessons, activities and a Boarding night. When they join, they have a buddy in Boarding from their Year group and they will share a room with someone from their Year group too.

Boarders are offered a programme of well-being activities such as Pilates, cooking, yoga and life skills lessons (inc. mental health and well-being) and lots of sporting activities.

Our enhanced pastoral care starts with our tutors, who are pupils’ and parents’ first point of contact. Small tutor groups allow tutors to really get to know pupils. House Parents in the Boarding House are always on-hand to provide support and guidance.

We would love to welcome you to Wycliffe for a tour around our busy, contented, Cotswolds Campus.
