0 a student who studies at a boarding school (= a school where students can live as well as study) but eats and sleeps at home --
The school catered for both residential and day pupils with emotional and behavioural difficulties.
Boarding students receive a 24-hour curriculum and day pupils receive life skills for independent living.
Can he say how many of the remaining 32 schools, if any, are boarding schools or are schools taking only day pupils?
At the last count of the children who are deaf in all schools there were 1,809 boarders and 1,805 day pupils.
Prior to this the last day pupil was admitted in 1983.
The house system is based on gender and status as a day pupil or boarder.
Teachers often do not know who is a day pupil and who is not.
It was to be limited to one day pupil, per boarding house, per school year.
