Home Has Never Been So Exciting!
At DLD we have made the innovative mould for 21st Century #UrbanBoarding. That’s why we were recently announced as a winner of the Independent School Parent Awards for Independent Boarding School of the current Year and received special recognition with a Special Judges’ Award, recognising our incredible urban boarding and support for student welfare.
DLD College London is the only school in Central London with Boarding in the same building. Living immediately above College, we want our boarders to feel that this is their ‘home away from home’, and to that end our holistic, all-round pastoral care is delivered through our small ‘Huddle’ communities, each led by one of our team of Resident Houseparents, who can be contacted 24/7. Our commitment to our students’ personal development was commended in our ISI Inspection, with 100% of boarders telling them they felt safe, happy, and at home here with us.
Our amazing city centre location means we can offer activities and trips which are second to none. If we go to the theatre, we go to the West End. A concert? The Albert Hall. A football match? Wembley. Unlike some other boarding schools, we encourage boarders to be able to explore London safely, with support structures in place to keep everyone safe, and to get the most out of living in the most exciting city on earth.
We have the best boarding rooms in the country, but organise so many amazing trips and activities, we don’t think you’ll spend much time there! Get a feel for the vibrancy of boarding on our dldboarding Instagram page, or contact us to find out more, or come and see us for yourself!
