We are a non-selective boarding school of over 400 girls and boys. Boarders at Oswestry School make up about one third of our community; they come from both the UK and overseas, with 23 nationalities represented.

Boarders are encouraged to play a full part in the life of the school, thereby developing their skills and interests and becoming confident young adults, ready to take their place in the world. Over the weekend there is plenty of free time to relax, or visit Oswestry and surroundings.
