Membership
The Boarding Schools' Association is the only association of which the sole interest is boarding. The association offers unique training for boarding staff, helping to ensure that member schools offer the highest standards of pastoral care where it matters most, in the boarding house.
Day seminars keep participants up to speed on topical issues such as child protection and regulatory requirements. Conferences inspire with great speakers, allow time for discussion with fellow professionals and perhaps give space and distance for sometimes hard-won moments of reflection.
Publications such as serious text-books, regular Briefing Papers (recent titles include ‘Cyberbullying' and ‘Homesickness') and termly Bulletins offer advice and information in written format.
Lastly, the National Director and Director of Training are available to offer Inset sessions tailored to the needs of individual schools, and if all else fails, call us or email for a personal response.
Here is a list of our current publications, many of them timeless texts addressing key issues in boarding, such as the policies and practice of effective pastoral care. You can also find legal guides, short books and a number of free Boarding Briefing Papers (BBPs) available to download.
