Meet the Heads: Free event all about Modern Boarding

Please Note: This event has been postponed.

Four leading senior and prep schools will be holding a discussion event in London exploring what a modern boarding school is like.

Heads from Tonbridge School, Benenden School, Brambletye and Eaton House, The Manor will consider the topic of how modern independent schools prepare young people for the careers of tomorrow.

The free event, entitled Next Steps: The Boarding Option, will be held on the morning of Saturday 21 March at the Saatchi Gallery in Chelsea.

Parents of children of all ages are welcome to attend, learn more about modern independent schools and put questions to the panel of experts, which includes James Priory, Headmaster of Tonbridge, pictured; Benenden’s Headmistress, Samantha Price; Will Brooks, Headmaster of Brambletye; and Oliver Snowball, Headmaster of Eaton House, The Manor.

James Priory said: “I’m looking forward to an in-depth discussion about modern independent schools, what we offer and how we help prepare young people for their future lives and careers in an increasingly uncertain world. It’s an excellent opportunity to gather information, meet other parents and, of course, ask questions.” 

The event is being held at 10.30am on Saturday 21 March at the Saatchi Gallery, Duke of York’s HQ, King’s Road, London SW3 4RY. Book tickets or find out more via the link.
