A Flexible Approach to Boarding

For families based in or around London, choosing a boarding school nearby offers the ideal balance. Pupils benefit from the calm, focused environment of the countryside while remaining close enough to home for weekly boarding to be both practical and convenient. This proximity allows for regular family time, easier weekend returns, and a gentle transition into boarding life.

Our flexible approach to boarding suits families with busy schedules. Weekly boarders typically arrive on Sunday evening or Monday morning and return home Friday. Flexi-boarding is also available, allowing day pupils to stay overnight when needed, particularly during exams or busy co-curricular periods.

Luckley House is also well suited to international families. With excellent transport links and easy access to major London airports, the school offers a convenient location for pupils travelling from overseas or returning home during the holidays.
