The Boarding Schools Show is a unique opportunity for parents to meet the Heads and Admissions Directors of the world's most prestigious boarding schools.

Get first-hand advice on entry requirements and academic scholarships and bursaries proves to be significantly more beneficial, creating initial ties with the relevant people ahead of your application.

Worldwide interest in British curriculum boarding schools continues to grow. There are currently 69,979 boarders in UK schools; 41% are from overseas families. The benefits of boarding at a leading British school are undisputed and importantly recognised by both university admissions teams and employers.

The Independent Schools Show started 15 years ago in London and has since expanded to include 12 key markets overseas.

For each Boarding Schools Show we carefully refine the list of attending schools to ensure parents are put in front of the very best of British private education. The alumni these schools produce include business leaders, politicians, academics and athletes. These schools produce, high-achieving, well informed and confident alumni, who make excellent candidates for top UK and US universities.

Supporting the exhibiting schools will be top educational consultants who will be available throughout the show, offering advice and guidance on finding the very best education for your child.

Leading this will be William Petty, Director at Bonas MacFarlane, London’s leading educational consultancy.

William has been featured in publications including The Times, The Economist and Tatler, and has appeared in BBC Radio 4’s Today programme.
