Your family has decided to send your teenager off to the UK to a boarding school for high school studies but you have no idea where to start – how do you know which school will be good for your child? You should take comfort in the fact that the UK has some of the best boarding schools in the world, but that doesn’t mean that you ought to enrol your child in just any school – you should find one where they will be a good fit. Here is what you should be looking for:
•    The best school for your child will be one that has an international student body. Your child might be extremely lonely if they are the only ones who are from another country – they will be amongst students who know nothing about foreigners. If you are a religious family make sure that the school is tolerant of all religions.
•    Find a school that has a good academic track record, and that has subjects in the curriculum that your children are interested in. You should talk to your child about what they think they want to become when they grow up,, and then based on their interests you can help them choose subjects. Ask the child to provide you with sixth form results from recent years so that you can see what kind of performance you can expect.
•    Make sure that you choose a school that you can afford. While England has some of the best boarding schools some of them are also extremely expensive.
The Cambridge Centre for Sixth Form Studies is one school where your child is sure to do well. It has many international students, a wide curriculum, good performance every year and it is affordable. You can find out more on https://www.ccss.co.uk/boarding/.
