Boarding Information
The boarding department at Copthorne aims to provide a home away from home for your son or daughter. We create a warm, welcoming and friendly atmosphere for all boarders; a place in which they can relax and enjoy being with friends in a safe and secure environment. The boarding accommodation is situated in the main school building and consists of Girls and Boys wings of five dormitories in total. The newly-refurbished boarders’ sitting room provides an excellent area for rest and relaxation at the end of the school day or catching up with family and friends by email.
