Military Boarding School

A Stable Educational Home for Children of Military Families


Image

Military life is often a journey of change, with frequent relocations and time spent apart. These challenges can create disruption for a child's education and social life, making the need for stability and continuity more important than ever. At All Hallows, we have a long and proud tradition of educating the children of those serving in the Armed Forces, and we understand these unique circumstances completely. We are not just a school; we are a dedicated partner committed to providing a stable, nurturing, and consistent educational home where your child will feel safe, happy, and truly belong.

Our "home-from-home" philosophy is our promise of an unwavering foundation for your child's future, ensuring they can thrive both academically and personally, regardless of where your service takes you.

Dedicated Support & a Transparent Financial Package


Image

We believe that a world-class education should be affordable and transparent for military families. Our admissions team has extensive experience in helping families navigate the financial landscape and the Continuity of Education Allowance (CEA) process.
Our "CEA plus 10%" offer is designed to be a clear and inclusive package, providing peace of mind and eliminating unexpected costs. This means that once you have received your CEA, your contribution is a straightforward 10% of the termly fee, simplifying your financial planning. Unlike many other schools, our package includes a wide range of extras that are often charged separately, such as an initial uniform voucher, weekend activities, and evening excursions. This ensures your child can enjoy a rich school life without the worry of a variable "extras bill."

As a Military Friendly School, we are deeply committed to supporting our military families.

A Nurturing 'Home-from-Home' Community


Image
The most critical factor in a child’s transition to a new school is their happiness and comfort. Our dedicated pastoral team, including two sets of live-in houseparents and an on-site matron, creates a family-like atmosphere where children feel secure, valued, and loved from their very first day.

Fast Integration

We have a fantastic pastoral system that helps new boarders quickly integrate into the community, build lasting friendships, and form a support network with peers who share similar experiences.

Balanced Life

We ensure a healthy balance between a busy schedule of enrichment activities and dedicated quiet time for relaxation and socializing with friends. This supportive environment is the bedrock upon which our children flourish.

Seamless Transitions and Ongoing Support


Image

We have vast experience in making the transition to boarding school as smooth as possible, particularly for families stationed overseas. Our flexible boarding options—full, weekly, and flexi-boarding, are designed to meet your family's diverse needs, and our team has significant experience in managing logistical challenges like holidays and exeats. We ensure your child is cared for and supported during times away from school, providing peace of mind no matter where your duty station is.

We invite you to reach out to our admissions team to learn more about our commitment to military families. The warmth and sense of community at All Hallows are best experienced firsthand.
