Our boarding community is warm, inclusive and supportive. Boarding at Kingsley is about more than just school — it's about community, friendship, and feeling at home.
Enquire About BoardingAt Kingsley, every boarder is known by name, by character, and by what makes them thrive. Our boarding team offers round-the-clock support, ensuring students feel safe, cared for, and genuinely part of the Kingsley family.
Whether a student is from down the road in Devon or the other side of the world, they receive the same warmth, the same care, and the same sense of belonging. Parents consistently tell us that their children settled faster than they expected — and that this is a school where they feel genuinely looked after.
Unlike many independent schools, there are no compulsory exeat weekends at Kingsley. Boarders can go home when it suits their family — or stay and enjoy an action-packed programme on site and across North Devon.
From beach trips and surf sessions to cultural visits, sports fixtures and creative workshops, weekends at Kingsley are never dull. The North Devon coast is on our doorstep — and boarders make the most of it.
For international students and families who prefer it, Kingsley offers a supervised half-term boarding programme. Students remain on site in a relaxed, activity-rich environment — fully supervised and cared for throughout.
