Boarding

Our Boarding Statement

"Boarding at Godolphin offers pupils a dynamic and safe community where they are able to build friendships for life, live and work together as part of a team, and where kindness, graciousness and compassion enable them to become confident young people in a contemporary world."

Our aims:

* To ensure that boarders and day pupils of all ages feel part of the boarding community, enabling them to overcome any challenges that may arise

* To build an atmosphere of openness and trust, encouraging pupils to show tolerance and respect

* To create opportunities for pupils to show leadership and to develop initiative, interests and talents within the houses, the school and the wider community through an extensive activity programme

* To ensure that the ethos in individual houses makes a positive contribution to the pupils’ educational experience, facilitating high academic standards

* To maintain a safe, attractive living and working environment within the houses and to ensure that school resources are readily available to boarders

* To offer a consistently high standard of care and support, by working in partnership with parents and guardians
