Starting a new school can be challenging, especially for boarders adjusting to life away from home. To help students thrive academically and socially, Myddelton College is introducing complimentary first-year boarding for all new UK students (non-scholarship), normally valued at over £35,000 per year plus VAT. Weekly and full boarding options are available.
Rather than simply offering financial relief, this initiative reflects Myddelton’s commitment to building confidence, fostering independence, and nurturing a strong sense of community from the very first day. Boarders benefit from a structured, welcoming environment where pastoral support, friendships, and academic guidance are seamlessly integrated.
Headteacher, Mrs L Davies, said: “Our goal is to ensure every student feels part of the Myddelton family from the start. Free first-year boarding removes barriers, but more importantly, it gives students the time and space to settle, find their feet, and flourish both in the classroom and in life beyond it.”
The college’s ethos of Scholarship, Fellowship, and Resilience underpins the initiative:
- Scholarship – focused support to help students achieve their academic potential.
- Fellowship – fostering meaningful relationships within a close-knit boarding community.
- Resilience – equipping students to navigate challenges with confidence and independence.
Families can choose weekly or full boarding, ensuring flexibility while guaranteeing students are fully supported during this critical first year.
Places are limited, and prospective families are encouraged to contact the Admissions Office early to explore this opportunity.
