Strengths & Weaknesses

Strengths

Fyling Hall School is an incredibly supportive, friendly school. In fact, we know few schools where our pupils feel as at home from day one as here.

The offer of outdoors activities is very strong here. Due to the rural location of the school, anything from surfing, to pony-trekking and rock-climbing goes.

The value-for-money here is second to none: unlike most other boarding schools, Fyling Hall School has decided to keep school fees at a palatable level and offers good things for it.

Weaknesses

The location is rather remote, but once you are there it rarely matters!

Die Lage

Fyling Hall School is located in rural Yorksire, 15 minutes away from picturesque harbour-town Whitby.
