Nestled in the historic city of Canterbury, our school offers a safe, vibrant, and welcoming boarding environment where students from the UK and around the world come together to live, learn, and grow.
Our modern boarding facilities are designed with student comfort and well-being in mind. We offer single and shared rooms, spacious common areas, 24/7 pastoral support, and healthy, freshly prepared meals every day. Whether your child joins as a weekly, termly, or full boarder, they’ll have access to all campus amenities and a structured, supportive daily routine that balances academic excellence with personal development.
One of the most enriching aspects of boarding at Worthgate is our diverse international community. Students from across the globe bring their unique cultures and perspectives, creating an inclusive environment where global friendships flourish. Through weekend excursions, social events, and our vibrant House system, boarders form bonds that last a lifetime. These connections not only enhance their personal lives but also build essential intercultural skills valued by top universities and future employers.
