Entry Points
What is the ideal age to transfer to a British boarding school?
If possible students should start at the beginning of the academic year. Integration and making friends is easier and students can get used to the rhythm of vibrant boarding school life from day one. However, depending on circumstances, entry throughout the academic year may be possible.
Years 9,10 and 12 are common entry points at most schools and the application is straightforward. Some schools offer specialised year 11 courses. Entry into other year groups can be discussed.
