Day Pupils at Canford

Day pupils at Canford can join one of three mixed houses at Canford - Lancaster, Salisbury and Wimborne.   

Day houses are organised in exactly the same way as the boarding houses.  Each has a housemaster/mistress to provide continuity of care from before arrival through to university and beyond, and house tutors who share responsibility for one year-group's welfare and academic progress. Each house has at least one matron looking after sixty to sixty five boys and girls.

Day pupils are fully integrated into life at Canford.  The school day officially ends for day pupils at 6pm but many stay later to take advantage of the range of extra curricular activities on offer.
