Supervision

"Thank you for being kind, friendly. You took care of us and helped us. I'm glad that I was here for four weeks with The Green staff and my friends. I hope that we could be together some day."

Sherborne Boys, founded in 1550, has been at the heart of Sherborne town ever since. Senior students (aged 12 and older) attending the Sherborne Summer programmes can enjoy controlled freedoms provided by the location. This includes free time in Sherborne town during certain periods and the ability to walk between the school and their boarding houses.

The quiet, historical setting of Sherborne is ideal for students to enjoy these freedoms, as everything is within easy reach—cafés, supermarkets, boutiques, coffee shops, pizzerias, and ice cream parlours. This environment helps students build new friendships, demonstrate independence, and instil important values of responsibility and trust.

Junior students (aged 12 and younger) are situated on their own secure, self-contained campus, formerly the home of Sherborne International. This campus is close to the town, ensuring age-appropriate supervision at all times.

Summary from British Council inspection in 2024

The school provides its students with appropriate pastoral care. The school offers a range of comfortable, conveniently located accommodation, which is very well managed. The leisure programme is very well designed and delivered to meet the needs of the students. Care of students, Accommodation and Leisure opportunities and Safeguarding under 18’s are areas of strength.
