Fees

We are conscious that investing in independent education is a big decision and we work hard to make sure that we offer the best value for money for families. 

In 2023 we were ranked by The Telegraph as the most affordable independent school in Devon and Cornwall for weekly boarding.

All of our fees include snacks and meals.
