Working Student Courses  

We take up to 8 working students at any one time usually on a one-year contract but we will take students on shorter courses if we have a vacancy.
Anyone interested in becoming one of our working students is invited to come for an informal interview for a complete morning. This gives the prospective student a good opportunity to have a look around and see the school during a normal working day.
Working students are expected to live in during their course time.

The list below is intended only as a guide and will vary slightly from day to day depending on which examination the student is studying for and whether horses are stabled or at grass.
