King Henry VIII College provides a unique and enriching experience for students who choose to live on campus. Our safe, supportive, and stimulating environment allows young people to excel academically and personally while developing our core values of responsibility, resilience, and respect. However, at KH8, being part of the boarding community means embracing independence and being part of a family above all else.
Our boarding accommodations are of the highest quality, with access to school facilities in the evenings and weekends, including a library, computer labs, sports facilities, swimming pool, gymnasium, and 600-seat auditorium for rehearsals and evening entertainment. Students also have access to a range of support services, including a dedicated houseparent, resident tutors, academic tutors, counsellors, a nursing team, and a cleaning and maintenance team, all on hand to help our students thrive academically and personally.
