About

Westonbirt School has a long tradition of boarding, offering full, weekly and flexi boarding options for both boys and girls. In 2023, we were included in the Fortune 'World's Leading Boarding Schools' 2023 report with a five star review and also voted 'Co-Educational Independent School of the Year' in the Independent School Parent magazine awards.

Owing to increased demand, we are delighted to announce the opening of Sedgwick, a new dedicated Junior boarding house which will cater for pupils across both of our Prep and Senior schools in Years 6-8 (ages 10-13). Full boarding is available to Year 6 pupils, with ad-hoc and flexi-boarding options available to Year 5 pupils.

Located in the beautiful Cotswolds, only 90 minutes from London Heathrow Airport and close to major road links, Westonbirt Prep and Senior Schools together provide a unique, magical and nurturing experience and a home from home for your child.
