City Coed Boarding
The Barker experience of coed boarding from Year 10, attracts boarders from the suburbs of Sydney through to country regions of NSW and beyond. The coeducational and small boarder numbers support the development of peer relationships and social skills, whilst also allowing strong academic and personal mentoring opportunities.
“Boarding at Barker College is a unique experience for senior students only with a maximum student population of 60,” Director of Boarding, Ben Christopherson said. “This allows us to have a very high teacher to boarder ratio ensuring personalised attention that meets the needs of our boarders.”
Families can consider keeping their children closer to home until the end of Year 9 and then elect to enter boarding from the start of Year 10. Boarders participate in programs that focus on the development of life skills, personal resilience and mental fitness.
