Boarding is available for 14 to 16-year-olds at The International School and 16 to 18-year-olds in the Sixth Form. There are six boarding houses with single or twin bedrooms, many with en-suite bathrooms, overseen by resident Houseparents or Heads of House with 24/7 on-site staff; supervised study periods run Monday to Thursday evenings. The majority of boarding houses are within walking distance of the campuses, with transport provided for houses closer to Oxford city centre.

Food is provided seven days a week; meals are served at The International School during the week and at weekends at the main Sixth Form building (333).
