Located in York in the north-east of England, Queen Ethelburga's College is a private day & boarding school for boys & girls of all ages, from Kindergarten all the way up to A-level. Queen Ethelburga's welcomes boarding pupils ages 5 to 18. Our Collegiate comprises four schools and a kindergarten, each with its own unique qualities, but all sharing a common purpose of providing students with a first class education and the opportunity to work towards higher education and a successful career.
No matter whether a child joins our boarding community in the Prep School or in the Sixth Form; whether they choose to stay with us all week, all term, or occasionally, there will be a warm welcome in one of our boarding houses.
The number of girls or boys to a room varies - normally from 4 down to 1 or 2 (dependent on age and availability). Queen Ethelburga's has it all - excellent academic results, a great deal of fun and excitement out of school hours, a huge number of things to do with loads of equipment and facilities.
There are strong academic standards across the Foundation, and students are encouraged to have high expectations for their achievement and career prospects.
Located in the County of Kent, just east of London, Rochester Independent College (RIC) is a progressive alternative to conventional secondary education with a happily distinctive ethos.
Accepting day students from the age of 11 and boarders from 16, the focus is on exam success in a lively, supportive and informal atmosphere. Students are encouraged to be themselves and achieve exam results that often exceed their expectations.
The College has an atmosphere closer to university than school. About 65 of the College's 280 students are boarders. Our Halls combine the informality of a university residence with the supervision and pastoral support appropriate for young adults.
The College offers students the opportunity to thrive in an atmosphere of managed independence, and acts as a stepping stone between school and university.
Students who are 15 are considered if their 16th birthday falls within the first half term of the academic year. College accommodation is in either single or double rooms. All rooms have a direct telephone and internet connection.
RIC is accredited by the ISC (Independent Schools Council) and a member of the Independent Schools Association.
Testimonial: “I was so impressed with all the classes & teaching I saw and came away with a very positive view of the College, its ethos & aspirations for the students. The priority of teaching & learning was foremost and the students projected such a positive attitude towards their studies”
