Boarding at Worth School

Being a boarder enables students to make the most of facilities, many of which are open in the evenings. Our flexible weekend policy allows students either to go home after classes on a Saturday or to remain in school where a number of activities are offered. Each boarding house has its own unique family atmosphere. In the earlier years, boys share dormitories/rooms, whilst students in the sixth form have an individual study bedroom.

Day School

Like the boarding houses, day houses also have a Housemaster and support staff. The day houses have a common room for boys in Year 9 and Year 10 while those in Year 11 and Year 12 have individual study areas, all of which are networked.

Day students participate fully in the life of the school and are able to take part in extra-curricular activities, both in the evenings and at weekends.

Day students arrive by 8:30 a.m. each morning and leave from 6:00 p.m. A minibus service is available for those who require transport to and from school.
