Boarding

With more than 40% of our students living on site, boarding is at the heart of the College community and reflects its values and ethos. The modern boarding model that we provide seeks to replicate the family atmosphere of a home where relationships are familiar in nature and the environment relaxed and stable.

The Eton Partnership

We take great pride in our collaboration with Eton College. This strategic partnership has enabled us to establish connections between the two institutions on multiple fronts, encompassing governance, the shared utilization of facilities, and the creation of diverse opportunities for both staff and students. Through this influential relationship, Holyport students benefit from a broad range of opportunities that would otherwise be beyond their reach.

It is our mutual aim for the relationship between Eton and Holyport to become the gold standard by which other state and independent school collaborations are judged
