IN ASSOCIATION WITH
Claremont School: The Benefits of Boarding
Claremont School’s boarding house is located in the centre of Battle and in
September 2016 will be home to some 48 students from the UK and further afield.
Selecting a small, international cohort to attend
Claremont represents a genuine opportunity for
local children to expand their knowledge of other
countries and to make new friends from around
the world. Boarders, both international and UKbased, benefit from the structure we offer which,
for many parents, is sometimes difficult to provide
alongside busy professional lives.
Boarding adds another positive aspect to
Claremont School in an incredibly successful year
in which it was rated Ofsted Outstanding in every
category and was placed first in the county on
the GCSE performance league tables.
Giles Perrin, Principal, adds: "The whole
boarding experience will enable our pupils to
develop independence, a responsible attitude
and gain essential life-skills that will help them to
make a success of university and the world
beyond."
Claremont School admits pupils from age
1 to 18, with boarders starting from age 11, and
offers weekly and full boarding options according
to availability. Students who will make our
boarding house their home in September 2016
will represent countries such as: Spain; China;
Germany; Nigeria; Russia; France; India; Saudi
Arabia; Russia; Poland; Latvia and Japan.
Claremont's Ofsted report emphasises that
the school provides an exemplary quality of
education and unrivalled pastoral care. Students

who choose to board will find themselves part
of an incredibly supportive family; a home away
from home in the heart of Sussex.
Forthcoming Open Days:
Nursery and Prep School: Friday 14th October
and Saturday 15th October
Senior School: Saturday 15th October
