Day Boarding at Midleton College

At Midleton College, we understand that every student has unique needs and preferences. To cater to these diverse requirements, we are proud to offer our Day Boarding option. This innovative program enables students to enjoy the benefits of a boarding environment during the day, including meals and study support, while returning home at night.

What Is Day Boarding?

Day Boarding is an extension of our commitment to personalized education. Students who choose this option will stay on campus for meals, supervised study (Prep), and other after-school activities. They will, however, sleep at home, providing a flexible balance between school and family life.

Benefits of Day Boarding

• Extended Learning: Students have access to our supervised study sessions, ensuring a quiet and conducive environment for academic growth.
• Nutritious Meals: Day Boarders enjoy the same healthy and delicious meals offered to our full-time boarders, nurturing both body and mind.
• Community Engagement: Participation in after-school activities fosters social integration and engagement with peers and staff.
• Preparation for Exams: Priority is given to exam classes, ensuring that students receive the support they need during critical academic periods.

Attending Prep

Students can opt to attend Prep for one or more nights a week, including Tea. This flexible approach allows families to tailor the Day Boarding experience to their child’s unique schedule and academic needs.

Guidelines and Regulations

• Approval Process: Day Boarding or attending Prep must be requested from Mr. Stanley. Due to limited availability, early application is encouraged.
• Priority Access: Preference will be given to students in exam classes to ensure they receive the necessary support.
• On-Campus Rules: Day Boarders or students attending Prep must remain on campus after school and comply with all school regulations, including the afterschool “Leave Out” rules.
• Community Expectations: All Day Boarders are expected to contribute positively to the school environment, respecting the rules, staff, and fellow students.

Conclusion

Day Boarding at Midleton College is more than an academic program; it’s an opportunity to immerse oneself in the enriching environment of our school, without committing to full-time boarding. Whether it’s for additional academic support, engagement with the school community, or convenience, our Day Boarding option provides a flexible solution to fit the modern family’s lifestyle.

Join us in exploring this unique and rewarding opportunity. Together, we’ll create a path that honors your child’s individuality while fostering academic success and personal growth.
