This year the Boarding Schools Show is coming to Istanbul for the seventh time.

Families based in Istanbul are warmly invited to attend the Boarding Schools Show at the Shangri-La Hotel in December.

There is no better way for parents located outside the UK to explore the life-changing educational opportunities available at boarding schools in a single day and a single place. Parents have a fantastic chance to meet and build relations with a selection of the most prestigious boarding schools without travelling thousands of miles.

Make those key introductions and speak one-on-one with the admissions directors and heads of top boarding schools, as well as some of the leading educational experts from the UK. Meet with parents whose children are already at school in the UK and attend seminars on achieving successful transfers into the UK system. There is no better way to find out about entry requirements, explore scholarships and bursaries and to get answers to specific questions than to come to the Show, and speak to schools in person.

About the Boarding Schools Show

The Show is a unique opportunity for parents to meet the Heads and Admissions Directors of the world's most prestigious boarding schools. Top UK schools as well as education, property and relocation experts will be exhibiting, offering parents the opportunity to plan every aspect of their child’s entry into the world’s most prestigious English language schools. Get first-hand advice on entry requirements and academic scholarships and bursaries proves to be significantly more beneficial, creating initial ties with the relevant people ahead of your application.

Worldwide interest in British curriculum boarding schools continues to grow. There are currently 69,979 boarders in UK schools; 41% are from overseas families. The benefits of boarding at a leading British school are undisputed and importantly recognised by both university admissions teams and employers.

The Independent Schools Show started 15 years ago in London and has since expanded to include 12 key markets overseas.

The very best British curriculum schools

For each Boarding Schools Show we carefully refine the list of attending schools to ensure parents are put in front of the very best of British private education. The alumni these schools produce include business leaders, politicians, academics and athletes. These schools produce, high-achieving, well informed and confident alumni, who make excellent candidates for top UK and US universities.

Supporting the exhibiting schools will be top educational consultants who will be available throughout the show, offering advice and guidance on finding the very best education for your child. Leading this will be William Petty, Director at Bonas MacFarlane, London’s leading educational consultancy. William has been featured in publications including The Times, The Economist and Tatler, and has appeared in BBC Radio 4’s Today programme.
