Not all students will be thrilled at the prospect of leaving home to attend a boarding school. If you’re trying to convince your child to begin the process and speak with a consultant, start by asking their opinion on the matter and listening to what they have to say. Their opinion matters.
Once you’ve heard their side of the story, present your reasoning for evaluating boarding schools. Explain the benefits, both academically and socially, and encourage them to at least learn more with the help of an experienced boarding school consultant.
