Boarding (10 to 18 years)

St James’ School has a long tradition of boarding. We passionately believe that an education lived is richer than an education attended. Our boarding community has a real family feel with students from around the world living together and supporting each other with the caring oversight of proactive Houseparents. Boarding is key to our continued success and the school has a culture that inspires throughout the day seven days a week, empowering our students to achieve the best academically and socially. Consequently, every pupils potential, whatever that might be is explored and fulfilled. Our children develop the skills needed for the future challenges in the global workplace and our approach to boarding is sympathetic to the needs of today's families, where children can go home regularly and parents are actively involved in school life. Our boarding experience is truly unique. Here at St. James' we understand the issues surrounding our modern families, thats why we have made our boarding provision the cheapest in the UK.
