Admissions
“The commitment to ensuring the safety and emotional wellbeing of boarders is an outstanding feature of this boarding school” – Ofsted
We are delighted that you are considering joining our boarding community. Boarding at Holyport College is an enriching experience where young people are encouraged to grasp opportunities to develop and thrive.
To apply for a year 7 boarding place, you must complete our Boarding Application Form. In addition to this, you must also complete your home Local Authority Common Application Form (CAF).
All applicants will be invited to attend an interview in the autumn term to assess their suitability for boarding at the College. We will also obtain a reference from their current school to complete our assessment.
You will be informed if your child is suitable to board by the end of the Autumn term.
If you are interested in applying for a boarding place for year 8, 9 or 10 we are happy to talk to you about availability. Contact us for more information or to book a tour admissions@holyportcollege.org.uk
