Boarding
from age 7 upwards

Join the Cade House Family

Cade House is home to over 40 full boarders at Cheltenham Prep School, aged 7 to 13 years old, with many more occasional and flexi boarders throughout the week. Cade House is situated in the main school building of Cheltenham Prep, making boarding at the heart of our school. Boarding at The Prep creates a culture of an extended boarding family, where each child feels safe, happy and valued. We aim to ensure that the children enjoy their boarding experience and develop friendships that last well beyond their years at Cheltenham Prep.
