Denstone College: Uttoxeter, Staffordshire, UK

Boarding school search? We are presenting here Denstone College, Uttoxeter, Staffordshire a great British boarding school  in England. Founded by Nathaniel Woodard in 1868, it is a Woodard school with strong Anglo-Catholic and public school traditions. No one would dispute that the needs of eighteen year olds and eleven year olds are very different. That’s where the College’s innovative „three School system” really sets us apart from other top boarding schools in UK. Our pupils are organised by School, or age, rather than house, as far as boarding, prep and socialising are concerned. The Junior Boarding School houses our youngest pupils, who join us at the age of 11, and remain there until they are ready to enter the fourth form. Our GCSE students can be found in the Middle School, where a more serious, focused atmosphere supports them in their endeavours to produce some of their best work during these academically crucial years. Once in the Sixth Form, students progress to the Senior School where they are able to manage their time in readiness for AS and A2 examinations and where they begin to prepare for university and college life. It is important to note though, that the House system runs comfortably alongside this structure, with all pupils belonging to one of our six Houses. Pupils compete for their House in a variety of competitions, and also take part in House social events.
