Overseas boarders are very well cared for both in terms of their pastoral care and in their practical arrangements.

The School operates a very successful system where full boarders are generally invited to spend' Guestrooms' (exeats) with their fellow day pupils. This allows the boys to enjoy a more natural weekend with a friend's family and engage ina different cultural experience. At the beginning and end of term the school makes arrangements for the transporting of its boarders to Heathrow airport (15 minutes away) with registered adults and staff accompaning boys to Heathrow to ensure a smooth transition to their homeward flight.

Parents of overseas boarders can enjoy full access to the school intranet (Gateway) site which details their sons' activities and trips as well as podcasts and videos of sporting, musical, dramatic performances and anything else of interest.

All full boarders write home at least once every week and have access to 'Skype' and telephones during their free time.
