College Profile

  

At Bishop’s Stortford College, there is a natural blend of day pupils, full boarders, weekly boarders and flexi-boarders (those who board a few nights a week). We aim to be as flexible as possible within our available capacity. Our starting point is what would work best for you, your child and your family.

 

Approximately 175 board: around 40 in the Prep School (most boarding from the age of 9 years) and 135 in the Senior School, including a number of international pupils. 

Given the diversity within the College, there is huge scope for bringing different people of different ages together to learn from each other and enjoy each other’s company.

Where our pupils live

Day pupils come from a relatively wide area, stretching towards Stevenage to the west and the coast to the east, Cambridge to the north and Epping to the south.

The majority of our UK boarders come from Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex and London.

We typically have between 40-50 international boarders with us each year. The majority of these are in the Senior School. We have a number who join our Prep School, usually from the age of 10 or 11. In the past few years, students have joined us from many different countries, including China (mainland and Hong Kong), Italy, France, Germany, Kazakhstan, Korea, Latvia, Nigeria, Poland, Russia, Spain, Taiwan, Ukraine and UAE.
