Embrace Boarding Life at Radley College

Accommodation: A Home Away from Home At Radley College, boarding life revolves around our unique “Socials,” where boys form bonds that last a lifetime. With dedicated pastoral teams and supportive housemasters, every boy receives the guidance they need to thrive. Our accommodation features mostly single bedrooms with shared bathrooms, ensuring privacy and comfort. The players’ lounge, equipped with entertainment options, and on-site amenities like the camp shop, laundry facilities, and Wi-Fi, make Radley feel like a true home away from home.

Dining: A Shared Experience Our communal dining experience in the Hall fosters a sense of community among students and staff alike. Cocoa time provides a moment of connection, free from distractions, where boys come together for a snack and conversation. This emphasis on shared meals promotes camaraderie and interpersonal communication, essential for a supportive community.
