ECM GRAMMAR SCHOOLS FOCUS

State boarding at Haberdashers’ Adams Education’s best kept secret? Haberdashers’ Adams, a selective grammar school in Newport, Shropshire, has an enviable reputation for academic, musical and sporting excellence. Despite this, not everyone is aware that approximately 100 of its 1000 pupils are boarders. Boarding is an excellent option for families where parents work long hours or travel. Many families consider the cost of boarding outside of their budget; however, as a state school, there are no education fees to pay. Therefore, families only pay the fees associated with

boarding: £4,619 per term for 2023/24. Junior boarders start their boarding life at Longford Hall, a beautiful Georgian mansion set in 100 acres of grounds, with magnificent views of the surrounding countryside. Senior boarders continue their boarding life in Beaumaris Hall, a purposebuilt home just metres from the school entrance. Across the two boarding houses, the best of town and country is offered. Both houses provide a fantastic support network tailored to the needs of

the different age groups. Boarding offers stability and allows pupils to be supported with their homework and form strong and long-lasting friendships. Boarders can also use the time they previously spent commuting to school far more productively by becoming more involved in the extra-curricular activities on offer, helping to increase their confidence and grow as individuals.
