We find that children of military families are often well-rounded and independent, which is why they tend to excel in boarding.
We also recognise that deployment is not always planned and often last minute, which is why boarding is a great option for you and your child. Boarding offers continuity and security, as well as an undisrupted education.
The warm, friendly, and caring atmosphere of Thone House offers a great home from home environment where children flourish and develop their sense of independence, whilst forming amazing friendships with their peers.
With a rich and fulfilling programme of evening and weekend entertainment and activities to enjoy, your child’s time as a boarder will be fun packed and rewarding.
For those families not claiming CEA we do offer a 15% military discount and at Thone House, we offer weekly, and flexible boarding (space permitting) for those families who need flexibility.
Taunton Prep School caters for military families aged 7 – 13. Our Head of Prep Boarding School, Kath Wells, is from a military family background and is sympathetic to the challenges that military families face.
