Boarding at Strathallan School
Strathallan, in addition to being an institution where academic rigour and excellence in all areas of endeavour are highly valued, is a school with strong family values and a friendly, welcoming atmosphere, one which derives very much from the fact that the vast majority of the teaching staff live on campus. Day pupils are, just like their boarding counterparts, members of our Boarding Houses and therefore both find it easy to create and develop friendships within the school and in their lives at home.
All the way across the school visitors inform us that they get a real sense of the inclusive and cohesive nature of Strathallan School when they meet pupils and staff alike. We encourage you to do likewise, the school will be happy to receive visits from prospective pupils and parents at any time of the year.
