"A Truly Special Place"

We've been at Bootham for 3 years now and it's been an absolute game-changer for our daughter. The values they instill in the children are incredible and the facilities are top-notch. The weekend programs are so varied and our daughter loves the independence she gains from being in boarding. Highly recommend!

"Exceptional Education and Values"

Our son attended Bootham for 5 years and we couldn't be prouder of the young man he's become. The education is fantastic, but it's the values they teach that really set them apart. He's now at uni and still talks about the impact Bootham had on his life. If you're looking for a school that will give your child a solid foundation in life, look no further!

"Great in Some Ways, Room for Improvement"

We've had a mixed experience at Bootham so far. The facilities are amazing and the teachers are passionate about their subjects. However, we've found the communication with the boarding team to be a bit lacking at times. We love the emphasis on individuality and the weekend programs have been a highlight for our child. With a bit more attention to communication, we'd be much happier!
