Boarding at Royal High
We take great care to develop every girl's individuality, enabling her to become a strong young woman ready to seize opportunities and make her mark on the world. Our boarding houses are home to girls from across the world – we're very proud to be multi-cultural. Our diversity means our girls learn about different cultures and get the opportunity to live in a thriving, international community before embarking on their journey into the adult world.


Excellent facilities
Our Senior School girls have a wealth of wellbeing and academic support in their newly refurbished boarding houses. For our Sixth Formers, living with friends, taking on responsibility and developing in maturity form the basis of Gloucester House.

Join the family
Boarding is beyond school. Become part of a family and make lasting memories. We welcome a diverse, international group of girls into our boarding houses and our students have a global network of friendships.

Activities programme
Our evening and weekend activities enable girls to bond, share new experiences and, of course, have a lot of fun. We encourage boarding girls to try new experiences – particularly to step outside of their comfort zone in a safe, supportive environment.

Flexible options
We offer full, weekly and flexible boarding to suit you and your daughter's every need. We benefit from being one of the 25 schools in The Girls' Day School Trust, the UK's largest educational charity. Our girls gain from the educational expertise that has been developed over the past 150 years – and our parents benefit too.
