Students are given the opportunity to live alongside peers hailing from the world over, promoting cultural interaction, multilingual communication, and the development of new friendships. Accommodation is in student residence, with flats of 8 bedrooms and a kitchen/common room space for shared use. Each bedroom is equipped with en-suite bathroom designed for private use. With Bede’s staff residing within these same premises, they are constantly available, ensuring that any arising concerns, even nocturnal ones, are promptly addressed.
To ensure consistency and clarity, the school adopts a daily routine of house registers and meetings, guaranteeing all students are updated on the day’s itinerary. In terms of practical amenities, a laundry service, managed by the House Parent, is provided for students a minimum of once a week, and its cost is incorporated into the overall fee.
Safety measures are of paramount importance, leading to weekly unscheduled fire drills ensuring student familiarity with evacuation processes. Finally, while Bede’s determines accommodation arrangements based on weekly enrollments, they do take into consideration accommodation requests from students. However, they note that while they aim to fulfil these requests, they cannot always guarantee their availability upon arrival.
