SPOTLIGHT: DULWICH COLLEGE, LONDON

Boarding at Dulwich College Cosmopolitan boarding Recognised for its outstanding academic excellence and diverse community, Dulwich College’s boarding community comprises 140 boarders representing over 20 nationalities. The College has boarding houses located around a 75-acre campus and pupils - weekly and full-boarders - frequently describe their boarding house as a ‘home from home’. Old Blew and The Orchard are home to around 55 boys from Years 9 to 13. It is a lively, warm and cosmopolitan environment with boarders from a wide range of countries and a variety of backgrounds. The mixed age range gives older boys the

opportunity to take on mentoring responsibilities as well as the chance to relax with their younger contemporaries who enjoy the company of senior boys. 80 boys live in Ivyholme and Blew House, with the link between the two making it feel like one large and vibrant home. Both houses are exclusively for Year 12 and Year 13 boarders and provide a stepping stone to university accommodation with their single en-suite rooms and focus on more independent living. Dr Joe Spence, the Master of Dulwich College, notes: “Boarding teaches lessons

for life – independence (and interdependence), tolerance and working as a team – and our boarders leave not only with outstanding academic results, but with an equally valuable self-confidence and a global perspective which will serve them well in later life” www.dulwich.org.uk/senior-school
