Good Schools Guide Boarding Review 2015
About a third of pupils’ board, a fairly even split between full and weekly or flexi. Parents’ book flexi boarding (usually 1- 3 nights per week) at the start of term but school can, and does, accommodate pupils at short notice. Day girls can stay after evening activities such as trips to London or the theatre – bunk beds add to the sleepover excitement. We were told that news of major road works caused a spike in boarding applications – even fairly local parents appreciate the benefits when gridlock threatens Oxford’s already notorious traffic.
When we describe the boarding as ‘homely’ it’s a compliment as well as a reality check. Years 7 -9 have large first floor rooms – sash windows and high ceilings – with three to four beds in each. School says mixing the age group helps foster sisterly ethos; colourful curtains and duvets, bedside clutter and lots of family photos and posters add to the family feel. There’s wardrobe and under bed storage but no desks – homework takes place elsewhere under supervision.
Sixth formers have characterful single study bedrooms, mostly up in the eaves. Rooms have names such as ‘North Pole’, ‘Elysium’ or ‘Valhalla’ – harking back to earlier and less centrally heated times. What would their former occupants think about today’s comforts such as duvets and power showers?
During the week there’s a table plan for supper – another way of making sure everyone knows each other – but things are more relaxed at weekends. Girls can make themselves snacks – they just go down to the kitchen and ask for supplies. Activities include film nights, Oxford based bowling, ice skating and trips to Port Meadow along with regular forays to Camden and Bicester Village for shopping. Boarders also take part in community activities – most recently litter picking for Oxclean (voluntary but apparently rather popular). There’s a big trip once a year to somewhere like Thorpe Park that’s funded by Old Girls – day pupils can go too but they have to pay.
