Boarding at Rendcomb College
SENIOR SCHOOL BOARDING
Senior Houses at Rendcomb College are located on the school’s campus and within easy reach of classrooms and sports facilities. Each house caters for a specific age group.
Each House has their own character and style and offer an ideal setting for all pupils to thrive and develop under the guidance of their dedicated Houseparents and their pastoral and domestic teams.
From Year 10 upwards, all Boarders have their own modern, comfortable study bedrooms which can be personalised, whilst the younger pupils share dormitories with two or three other students.
Boarders’ weekends are full, busy and purposeful through the provision of an extensive programme of activities run by the Houseparents, with activities throughout the week designed specifically for the House.
SIXTH FORM BOARDING
Entry into the Sixth Form represents an important and challenging watershed in a student’s education. Central to this experience at Rendcomb is the Sixth Form House, Park.
Park House is a co-educational, purpose-built self-contained block and when not in lessons or tutorial groups, students spend time studying or relaxing in Park House. Park has a great friendly atmosphere and this helps our students get the balance right. They not only achieve strong academic results but also enjoy the Rendcomb Sixth Form experience.
Starting a new school or moving boarding house is always an exciting time, with new possibilities for the students being identified.
