When pupils, parents and teachers of Boundary Oak are asked to describe the school in one word – that word is family. Our warm, familial environment and community-driven ethos, together with our delivery of educational excellence since 1918, empower our pupils with the skills to navigate the world around them. Our culture of kindness, strong values and high standards are matched by a wealth of opportunity that sees every child flourish – in learning, in life and beyond school.
Boundary Oak pupils feel happy, safe, and valued. They work hard, achieve highly, and enjoy full participation in a well-rounded education that cultivates passions, life skills and lifelong friendships; pupils have the right mindset to reach their potential, becoming the best versions of themselves. The school is situated on a 30-acre rural site in Hampshire, between Portsmouth and Southampton, with pupils benefiting from the vast grounds to enjoy sport, outdoor education and the busy weekend and evening activities programme.
Our boarding house is a home-from-home for our boarders and offers a friendly and secure environment, where they enjoy friendships with pupils of all ages. Their happiness and well-being are every bit as important as their academic progress.
Academically, the school offers strengths in Physical Education, Creative Arts, skills-based learning, and an exceptional extra and co-curricular provision. As part of the international Globeducate group, pupils benefit from a variety of opportunities to attend events in Europe, which combined with our progressive curriculum, ensures that everyone develops a global outlook.
