Poll: Would you send your child to boarding school if money were no object?
The vast majority of parents would recommend state boarding schools to other mothers and fathers.
These schools offer high academic quality, opportunities for pupils to fulfil their potential, and practical solutions for families trying to balance work with a home life, it claims.
A survey, commissioned by the State Boarding Schools Association (SBSA), questioned more than 1,500 parents with children at 29 state boarding schools across the UK.
Families with children at state boarding schools do not pay for their education, but do pay boarding fees, typically at a cost of less than £10,000 a year.
Overall, more than nine in 10 (93%) parents and carers said their child is at least fairly happy in their boarding house, the poll found.
And 95% said they would be at least fairly likely to recommend their youngster's school to other people, with 72% agreeing that they would be very likely to do so.
The same proportion (95%) said they would be at least fairly likely to recommend UK boarding in general, with around two-thirds (65%) saying they would be very likely to do so.
