Dallam School
With examination results amongst the best in the county and a good Ofsted rating for boarding, Dallam is a popular choice for students wanting a top UK state boarding school. On the fringes of the Lake District but within easy reach of Manchester International Airport, it has an ideal, rural location.
“Dallam provides outstanding education and boarding to UK and EU citizens.”
Dallam boasts £12m of new buildings and students are always busy with an extensive extra-curricular programme of sports, arts and outdoor activities.
At 1000 students, including a Sixth Form of 250, the school is small enough for everybody to be known as an individual but large enough to offer a wide range of courses, including GCSE and A Level.

There is a distinctive international ethos and emphasis on creativity, service and outdoor challenge throughout the curriculum. Available only to UK and Irish citizens, fees are much lower than similar independent schools because tuition is paid for by the state.
