Weekly boarding is an integral part of Twyford
School. The Boarding House provides a safe, comfortable environment
and lots of fun in the evenings. The staff offer a varied programme
of activities each evening and on a typical night the boys and
girls may choose between art, football, swimming, ICT or board
games.
Pupils may board from Year 4 but many parents prefer
to start by Flexi Boarding the younger pupils for one or two
nights per week.
In recent years over 80% of Year 8 have weekly boarded in
preparation for their senior schools, or simply because they
want to take advantage of the opportunities that boarding
offers.
International pupils are very welcome at Twyford and we have
an excellent record of placing boys and girls at English senior
schools. On Sundays, when the School is closed, and at exeat
weekends, pupils return to their guardians. Twyford School
recommends a system whereby the pupil stays with a local family
and so gains the benefit of a traditional boarding school
and home life with a supportive English family. We are experienced
in making all the necessary arrangements. Heathrow, Gatwick
and Southampton airports are all within easy reach
