The school visit is very important in the process of choosing a boarding school for your child, we often say, it is not about the buildings and facilities but about the people that you meet.
Traditional UK boarding schools refer to English language teaching for international students as English as an Additional Language (EAL), English as a Second Language (ESL) or ESOL (English as a Second or Other Language).
Boys do learn differently from girls, teachers in a boys' school understand how a boy learns and as a result are quite successful in implementing the special teaching techniques required to achieve optimal results.
There is a body of research which suggests that girls do learn differently from boys. So, if that is the case, maybe you should consider a girls school for your daughter instead of sending her to a co-ed school.
The whole point of education is to prepare and equip children to thrive when they leave school. Life does not keep boys and girls separate. Universities, the workforce and pupils’ future lives will not feature a division of sexes.
UK Boarding schools take boarders from the age of 7yrs to 18yrs, the best age to start will depend on personal circumstances. We frequently meet mobile families where their jobs require them to move every two or three years.
