What are day schools and boarding schools?

Answer 1

Boarding school can be a great place to meet new people and to have fun while you're at school, but day school is also a good place to go if you don't like being away from your parents or you have great friends where you are. Both are really great, but boarding school can be really fun and you get really close to the people you meet there.

ANSWER

One cannot say that boarding school is better or Day school in comparison, while both are effective in producing good results in terms of academics, extra-curricular, social interactions etc but for some parents it's difficult to give extra-care and time to their child from the drudgery of their routine, and also due to other reasons they send their children to boarding.

There are number of benefits in a boarding School.

1) Daily coexistence leads to friendships, not just among students, but also with faculty members.

2) Low student-teacher ratio. The median class size is 12 students per teacher, with a student-to-teacher ratio of 6 to 1.

3) Boarding school reduces compartmentalization, because academic studies are blended with other activities, such as sports. This natural juxtaposition increases the appeal of both pursuits.

4) Provides stability not available in families where one or both parents travel or are virtually never home due to work schedules.

5) Safety of individuals residing in boarding school is typically higher than non boarding school age students in general.

6) Special help programs are often available.

7) Students enjoy more challenge and face fewer harmful distractions. If the student's public school options are rife with bad influences or lack diversity, boarding school may be the answer.

8) Students learn to govern their own behavior. And parents no longer have to seem like ogres or nags. In many cases students appreciation for parents greatly increases.

9) Where earlier generations have attended the institution, a family tradition is sustained -- becoming an additional source of motivation

10) Some schools have summer sessions, possibly also open to students of other schools. These sessions often feature special concentrations such as academic or computer instruction and/or the fine arts. Some offer sports and/or rigorous outdoor training during the summer.

11) Some boarding school offer a post-high school graduation development program, which can provide additional opportunity to mature, perfect academic polish and further develop themselves becoming better prepared to be an adult in today's world.
