Senior School Day

Oswestry School is proud of the broad and exciting education it provides for day pupils, allowing them to take equal advantage of all the facilities and opportunities available to their boarding contemporaries, while continuing to live with their families.

Day pupils are encouraged to develop their talents and interests and are able to participate fully in all the drama, music, sports and extra-curricular activities on offer, including House competitions, at the same time as experiencing a full home life. Many pupils who are competing at a high level in a particular sport or hobby choose the day option so they can take advantage of development programmes and competitions outside school, e.g. horse riding.

Dedicated study spaces are provided for day and boarding pupils in the Sixth Form. Upper Sixth pupils take on leadership roles learning the importance of responsibility, looking after other pupils and organising House competitions and events. Many day pupils take the opportunity at this stage to try their hand at boarding, as they prepare for life after school, with different flexible options available.
