Bromsgrove — around the school

Flair, discipline, academic rigour. That's what Bromsgrove is all about. Sensational academic performance achieved through hard work; sport played to win at international, national and local level; creative work played, performed and exhibited to move the soul, not tick boxes on a CV.

Ancient but with a contemporary approach, Bromsgrove's scope is staggering: from A level to the International Baccalaureate, day to boarding, the arts to sport, pupils can excel in a wide variety of areas. Utterly dedicated to the individual pupil, Bromsgrove looks to produce creative citizens with a strong moral compass.

The Good Schools Guide says that Bromsgrove "inhabits the academic stratosphere" and lauds its titanic extra curricular programme as one of the finest it has seen.

Bromsgrove — boarding house life

Boarding community is diverse, with pupils from over 50 different nationalities. The Senior School's Boarding facilities have been enhanced by a completely new Sixth Form boarding house and one new girls boarding house with total refurbishment of the existing boys' and girls' houses to a very high standard.

The boarding environment is happy, stable, disciplined and nurturing. The stability and continuity that enable boarders to thrive are provided by resident houseparents (all academic members of staff) and their families, assistant houseparents, house mothers and a team of house-based tutors.

Pastoral care

A genuine home away from home

Bromsgrove — pupils playing sport

The cliché "home from home" is as good as any to describe Bromsgrove's boarding offer. Half of Bromsgrove's Senior Houses are for boarders, and boarding life is as rich and full as you can imagine. From Sunday trips and activities to evening or weekend use of the Schools' facilities, boarders enjoy a diverse, rewarding life away from the classroom.

And Bromsgrove never closes in term time. There are no exeat weekends, so if a boarder wants to stay at School for every weekend in a term, he or she can be confident there will be plenty of other boarders on site. There are six Senior boarding houses catering for pupils from ages 13 to 18.

We can arrange trusted UK guardianship for international families.
