Dear parents in the house, i would to know your opinion on this topic. Do you think boarding school helps sharpen your child academically or other wise. And in what age can you send your child to a boarding school?

I as a product of boarding school will always advocate for a boarding school.
Pple kick against boarding cos
1 the bullying
2 ability to learn the evils in the society etc
But I see these the other way. I wasn't a bully in my school neither was I super bullied. Being beating by a senior and the 'fear' of a senior can be fun. It was fun to me when I had passed out. The memories of how we dodged the seniors etc.
Living a redimented life at such a young age can also help in the learning curve. There is time to always read his books, sleep, pray, read, attend functions etc.
Again the child gets to understand how to be independend at such a young age( a plus)
The child learns reading culture early in life.

Please treat your child to a boarding school.

i hope this topic gets to the front page so that wecan have lots of opinions as am seriously considering this for my boys.

they will have to go to nigeria, dnt think i will be able to afford the uk ones.

Would prefer boarding school.

I attended one, and same goes for all my siblings.

Somehow, it teaches one to be independent.
