Sibford School has two boarding houses, both located within our 50-acre countryside campus, close to the main school buildings.
Our houses are run by House Parents (some of whom are also teachers) who work hard to create a family style environment. House Parents live at either end of the boarding houses and get to know our boarders well, and like parents they try to keep informed of their progress at school whilst also giving them a secure home to retreat to from the pressures of academic work.
Fielding is our girls boarding house for boarders ranging from Year 7 to Year 13.
This boarding house provides a family atmosphere while at the same time giving the students additional independence in recognition of their age and in preparation for university or leaving home.
Downstairs, the students can enjoy relaxing together in the common area, which includes a lounge with comfortable sofas, a TV room, a pool table and a study area. There is also a well equipped kitchen and breakfast bar. All the bedrooms in Fielding are twins.
Penn is our boys boarding house, home to students from Year 7 to Year 13. The house has a large, homely dining area where the students can enjoy meal times together, a games room with a pool table and games consoles, and also a cinema room for watching movies and TV.
Upstairs, the house has a number of shared rooms, some of which contain four beds and some of which include two beds. All rooms provide the students with room for private study.
