Boarding at Scots
Boarding at Scots offers boys a safe, secure and nurturing environment in which they can develop their unique potential – academically, physically and spiritually.
More than 240 boys from Years 5 to 12 call the Boarding Houses at Scots home. By setting boundaries, gently but firmly, all boys know what is expected of them and develop high expectations of themselves. Ultimately, we hope all boys leave the Scots Boarding community as responsible, open-hearted and open-minded young men who respect others.
Boarding Bursaries
Bursaries are available to boys entering Years 7 to 11 and provide exemption of tuition and/or boarding fees. Bursaries are awarded based on a range of criteria, including financial need (means tested), leadership qualities, academic performance, interview and co-curricular abilities.
