Boarding at Sibford School

Pupils can board at Sibford School on a full-time, weekly or flexi basis.

We have three boarding houses:

• Penn House, which caters for boys aged between 11 and 16;
• Margaret Fell, which caters for girls aged between 11 and 16; and
• Fielding, which is our sixth form boarding house.

In all houses, the emphasis is on a home from home environment where friendliness and warmth prosper and in which pupils feel physically and emotionally secure.

Resident house parents are on hand, 24 hours per day, seven days a week. The school also has a separate health centre and employs a full time registered nurse.

Sibford welcomes students from across the globe. Diversity is celebrated, however, we are well aware that many parents choose to send their children to school in the UK so that they can fully experience British life; we therefore limit our number of overseas pupils to a maximum of eight per cent of the total school population.
