Royal Wolverhampton

Centre Facts

The Royal Wolverhampton School is set in a 28-Acre campus, situated less than a mile from the centre of the city of Wolverhampton.

The school, originally started as an orphanage, quickly became a well-established boarding school thanks to some generous donations during its early history. It is now a highly respected boarding school and includes amongst its patrons the Earl of Wessex (Prince Edward).

The school boasts some fantastic facilities including a gymnasium, tennis courts and playing fields as well as the new indoor swimming pool which was completed this year. It also has some very good non-sporting facilities such as an art and design centre, 3 computer suites and a cyber café.

Accommodation

Accommodation is provided in a mixture of single, double, 3-bedded and 4-bedded rooms spread across three boarding houses on campus.

All houses are close to main facilities making it a very convenient campus for students.
