Senior Boarding Houses

At Clayesmore, our boarding houses are more than just places to sleep—they are vibrant, close-knit communities where pupils feel safe, supported, and truly at home. Each House has its own unique character and setting, but all share the same ethos of care, camaraderie, and opportunity.

Led by dedicated Houseparents and supported by matrons, tutors, and residential staff, the Houses form the heart of boarding life—offering warm, welcoming spaces for study, socialising, and rest. Pupils build lifelong friendships, enjoy the freedom to grow, and gain a strong sense of belonging within their House family.

We have three boys’ houses and two girls’ houses, each with excellent facilities, generous social spaces, and direct access to the school campus and countryside surroundings.
