As you move through the school and grow in confidence and independence, you might then choose to board more often, so that you can share the experience with your friends and spend more time on your co-curricular interests. 

As a Flexi-boarder, you can stay at school for three nights per week – you have a dedicated space in the house where you can leave your possessions even when you are not staying overnight.  You can also choose to board over the weekend, if space allows, if there is an activity in which you want to take part.

Weekly boarding is becoming increasingly popular with families who live in London or in Sussex and Surrey.  It means that you can get the most out of the educational and co-curricular opportunities from Monday to Friday, and then return home to other friends and family at the weekends.  You are, of course, very much part of the school community and receive the same level of care, opportunity, and accommodation as those who board full time. If you live in London, you join the ‘Victoria Escort’, which means that you are chaperoned on the short train journey between Brighton and London Victoria on a Friday evening, and met at Victoria on Sunday evening to return by bus.
