Day Boys

It is possible to attend Brymore as a day boy or ‘out-boarder’ which, like all other state funded schools, is free of charge. Dayboys are known as ‘out-boarders’ as all boys board at Brymore for at least part of the time in order to undertake duties and gain an insight into boarding life. Farm and garden duties are compulsory, as they form an essential part of the BTEC agriculture and horticulture qualification.

Involvement is key to success at Brymore, so staying for activities is part and parcel of life at Brymore. Out-boarders are able to remain in school for tea, prep and all free activities until 9pm each evening (currently costing £10.95 each day) and are able to use the boarding house common room that they are attached to. All out-boarders are expected to complete a Chad’s Run and fitness session once per week.
