academic success, and the boarding houses are wonderful places where individual and collaborative study takes place.\u00a0 \u00a0The boarders are supervised closely, structures and routines are clear, fellow boarders act as academic support and tutoring from specialist boarding tutors takes place during the week.\u00a0 \u00a0Add to that the fact that all boarding staff are academic staff who live on-site, and there is a plethora of academic frameworks to bring out the best in our boys.\u00a0 \u00a0With Year 9-10 exams starting in Week 4, and then Year 8 in Week 5, Barry House will be implementing a second prep each night during the exam period, with a second study session added each night before Lights Out.\u00a0 \u00a0Check out the Barry House boys hitting the books hard in preparation.<\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_4327\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4327\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
