Here at West Buckland School, we provide dedicated support to British Military families throughout every aspect of school life, from Nursery to Year 13. Our focus on exceptional pastoral care ensures that all students and their families experience a sense of stability and security within our close-knit community. We offer full boarding from Year 7, and we are introducing junior boarding from Year 4 in spring 2024.

HM FORCES DISCOUNT

Since our inception in 1858, West Buckland School has had a close association with families from the Forces.

We welcome full boarders who receive the Forces’ Boarding Schools Allowance – Continuity of Education Allowance (CEA).

In addition, we offer a 10% discount to ALL children of Forces families, including those in the Reserves.

CCF and Outdoor Leadership

Located on a 90-acre campus between Exmoor National Park and the Atlantic coast, we offer robust outdoor leadership programmes. With our CCF programme and outdoor leadership opportunities, students dive into exciting challenges. From conservation efforts with the John Muir Awards to testing endurance in the Ten Tors challenge and embracing adventure through the Duke of Edinburgh Awards, there’s something for everyone.
