School education: German pupils can learn at British boarding schools like the future King of England
Boarding schools in the UK enjoy an elite reputation. They offer small learning groups and a wide range of leisure activities. What they offer German students - and how to get a spot.
Ferdinand Steinbeis, head of the boarding school agency von Bülow Education in London, knows firsthand what it's like for German students to attend a British boarding school. Before Brexit in 2020, Germany was the third-largest source of foreign private school students in the UK, after China and Hong Kong. Many German parents still consider British boarding schools attractive, despite the increased costs, with some schools like Harrow School in London charging €84,000 per year.
There are over 500 boarding schools in the UK, and agents like von Bülow Education and Glasmacher offer free guidance to help families navigate the process.
