Boarding School | comment |
The misadventures of students at boarding schools were once a staple of children's literature, starting in the Victorian era, but they fell out of fashion in The '60s. Starting in the late 1990s, however, the Harry Potter series, a Heroic Fantasy taking place in a wizarding boarding school, revived many of its tropes (although significantly breaking from the tradition by making the school mixed instead of single-sex; and also free to attend). note They are called "public schools" in the UK, the British term for most private schools, which are commonly boarding schools. Boarding schools may be "public" schools where the pupils are not charged a tuition fee and/or the pupils are selected on their talents or meritocratic basis, or "private", where the pupils (or rather their parents) are charged a tuition fee (which may or may not be outrageous). In Britain, public schools are private and do charge fees, unless you're a scholarship student, and both terms are used more or less interchangeably. See Useful Notes or the Other Wiki for explanation. While elite boarding schools such as Eton and Harrow get a lot of attention in Real Life, mostly, the boarding schools depicted in stories were for the aspiring middle classes, so did not have particularly elaborate facilities. The biggest educational difference from other schools was the syllabus, which led to a few jokes about Latin classes, but the classrooms and facilities were typically much like any other because that wasn't where the story was. The story was in the fact that they were boarding schools; the children lived on the premises, sharing dorm rooms and eating all their meals together. The Boarding School genre revolves around the impact of this — children, separated from their parents, growing up together and without much supervision in their off-hours. All the advantages of having a story about orphans sans the tragedy of dead parents. The cliché plot in the genre is having the protagonists decide to break school rules so that they can "do the right thing" or help someone. When they are caught, the wise Headmaster or Headmistress punishes them, but in a measured way which takes into account their honorable motives, the Reasonable Authority Figure trope. Quite often, the school buildings would be old and in fairly bad shape - leaking roofs, faulty heating, and clanking pipes - leading to stories where the children attempted to raise enough money to save their school. If the boarding school is in an old castle or manor house, the kids may explore and find hidden Bookcase Passages, Secret Underground Passages, and Secret Rooms, in which they may find antiques and mysterious items. If it's a fantasy story, they may find magical items or portals. While this article focuses on UK boarding schools, stories with boarding schools are also set elsewhere in Europe, in North America, and in Japan, among other locations. Common elements in the Boarding School genre include the following: Children/teenagers as the main protagonists learning about The Power of Friendship. The nice teacher, the Cool Teacher (often teaches drama, literature or poetry) and the nasty one (often teaches math, science or grammar rules). A wise, kindly Headmaster/Headmistress. Midnight feasts. Pranks, sneaking around after hours, and smuggling contraband items (comics, candy, drinks, etc), all done on tiptoes to avoid the Fun-Hating Confiscating Adult teacher from taking the unauthorized items. Houses within the school, with fierce competition (note these can be found in The Good Old British Comp too, although, in self-consciously modern schools, they're probably called "teams"). School sports taken seriously. Authority-approved school clubs (theatre, music, etc) and Students' Secret Society clubs. A spoilt student from a wealthy family. A perfect and kind student who excels in her studies while also being a good athlete, a mentor, and serving the community. Why, just last month she rescued a sick bird and figured out to cure it.... A bully who may be big and strong. After a few incidents of bullying, An Aesop is likely, where they realize they were just misunderstood and/or struggling with their Darkand Troubled Past and apologize to the victims. Hazing and Children's Covert Coterie (secret hangouts). Hazing is Played for Laughs in old stories but in modern shows, expect a Very Special Episode about bullying and abuse. The class struggles between the clique of posh kids and the poorer "scholarship" students. "Fagging", the (mostly obsolete) practice of younger students (the fag) acting as servants for the elder ones (the "fag-master")—in return, the elder student is supposed to mentor and protect the "fags" serving him. note Has nothing to do with either homosexuality or cigarettes (usually). The term derives from the fact that they used to have to chop and haul firewood (faggots) for the upperclassmen. Situational Sexuality, either Played for Laughs or Played for Drama. Hell, with all these pranks and sneaking around, it's amazing they ever get any schoolwork done! The Good Old British Comp is the other UK school trope. Overlaps with Elaborate University High, if the boarding school has many buildings and extensive facilities. Contrast with Off to Boarding School, which generally portrays the experience as negative, along with the Boarding School of Horrors, which is even worse. |

Harry Potter is set in one of these. J. K. Rowling's great achievement is not so much the fantasy fiction element of the Potter novels, but that she reinvented and breathed new life into what was by the start of the 21st Century a moribund clichéd genre - the boarding school novel. Rowling confirmed in July 2015 in answer to a fan dispute that Hogwarts is not a fee-charging school, however; all tuition is paid for by the Ministry of Magic. | |

Discworld:- The other British author who has re-written the boarding school novel is Sir Terry Pratchett. In Pyramids, he introduces the Assassins' Guild School as a parody of the boarding school novel - Pratchett has said that to visualise the School for Assassins, he took a typical British boarding school and turned all the knobs up - especially the one labelled "violence". Elsewhere in the Discworld there are other examples, including the Quirm College for Young Ladies, Hugglestones, the Fools' Guild school, and the Assassins' Guild School. In particular, the opening section of the novel Soul Music covers most of the stereotypes of the genre at the Quirm College for Young Ladies. Don't go to the Fools' Guild school, by the way. It's a crying shame. | |

Magical Diary takes place in a boarding Wizarding School but subverts the British trope expectations. While there are Halls, it's purely a social grouping, there's no competition between them. The only sports games involve students from all Halls taking part just for fun. There is a (brief) equivalent of fagging, in the American hazing tradition of Freshman Initiation. | |

In an episode of American Dad! called "Top of the Steve", Steve and Roger run away to a boarding school called "Pendlingtonton Academy" after getting fed up with Stan's attitude. But shortly after arriving, they discover it's an all-girls school (Steve was let in due to some kind of technicality in the school's charter). After noticing how so much about their situation at PA is just very off, Roger's Genre Savvy enough to figure out that the whole thing is a Poorly-Disguised Pilot for a spin-off with Steve as the lead character. | |

The Emperor's Club is about an American private school. This one's from the point of view of a teacher, the school is a good place, and it's all thoroughly in the tradition of molding boys into men, etc. There's still some of the "overbearing rich parent damages adolescent son" plot, but that's treated as more of a sad fact of life than an indictment of the whole system. | |

Batman: When Tim first tracks down Dick and asks him to come back to Gotham to partner with Bruce again, he's in a boarding school for middle school and says he's gone to boarding school all his life. He'd evidently gotten really good at sneaking out. He manages to talk his mom into letting him go to public high school. Robin (1993): Tim's father loses patience with his supposedly bad record (despite his getting excellent grades) and after realizing Tim didn't try out for football he yanks him out of public school to send him back to boarding school, at Brentwood Academy, in the middle of his freshman year of high school. Tim adjusts to the school but compares it to a prison and is almost happy when his dad makes a financial blunder that bankrupts him and causes him to stop paying Tim's tuition. Gotham Academy takes place at the titular school, where most students live on campus and some special cases live there even during summer break because they have no other housing and the school is their guardian due to their parents being incarcerated or deceased. |

Lady Jewelpet: the Jewel Palace and the Royal Palace are functionally schools so large that their students are expected to live there (they ARE palaces), and they're dedicated to teaching girls to be ladies and boys to be gentlemen. Though they're co-ed, girls and boys are usually separated since they learn very different things, coming together for exams that require them both (not that they don't hang out in their free time). | |

In The Island of Sheep, Haraldsen enrolls his daughter in an English boarding school under an assumed name to keep her out of the sights of the criminals who are pursuing him. When Lombard goes to retrieve her, one step ahead of the villains, the school is like something out of an Angela Brazil book, and so is she. She becomes less like a school-story character the more time she spends away from the school. | |

Child of the Storm has a slightly meta example in that the author periodically makes reference to attending/having attended a British Boarding School, with the odd, slightly dark comment about what it's like, and the occasional confirmation that Hogwarts is very true to life... except that in real life, there is much more sex and violence. Particularly violence. Doesn't, however, often come across since most of the action is set outside of Hogwarts. | |

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: Naranja/Uva Academy is a huge school which includes dorm rooms, since it attracts people from all ages from all over Paldea. It's not completely a boarding school, since students who live in Mesagoza, the town where the academy is located, aren't allowed to have dorm rooms (not that they would need them anyway). Also, the majority of students from the neighboring town of Los Platos don't bother with the dorms either and preffer commuting each day. | |

This Is Not a Werewolf Story is set at One of Our Kind Boarding School, which is for kids who have various problems at home. There's one Sadist Teacher, though the others are all rather nice, if prone to keeping supernatural secrets. Also, the school borders a magic forest, though the protagonist is one of the few who learns this. | |

The Ciaphas Cain novel Cain's Last Stand features the titular now-retired commissar as a teacher at a Schola Progenium, a sort of state-run boarding school for orphans specifically devoted to educating future members of the Ecclesiarchy and the Commissariat. This being the Warhammer 40,000 universe and Cain being a Hero of the Imperium, not much time is devoted to actually developing much beyond Cain's class and work associates before the action starts. However, from the innumerable references to Cain's own experiences in a similar body, it's clear that the Scholae Progenia are essentially British boarding schools IN SPACE!! | |

House of Anubis, where all the action takes place in a British Boarding School that was built originally as a real house for a famous archaeologist. Despite its appearance and charm, it's more of a Boarding School of Horrors. | |

Scent of a Woman is about a poor boy who has a scholarship at an expensive American boarding school that prides itself on producing good future Officers for the Army, as he takes an extra-curricular job looking after a blind ex-officer who teaches him to stop being so driven and to enjoy the finer, simpler things in life (i.e. the scent of a woman). His school only becomes a main part of the film towards the climax. |

Code Lyoko. Interestingly, the school the children go to is heavily visually based on real locations in Boulogne-Billancourt, France. It isn't a boarding school in real life though; the writers consciously changed that to keep the characters together (even though one does live off-campus). | |

Loving Annabelle: Annabelle is sent to a Catholic boarding school by her mother, as she's been expelled from her past two schools. We're told that if she's expelled from this as well, she'll go to military school. It doesn't work, and she will likely be sent there in the wake of the film's events. | |
