Overview

Winchester College, founded in 1382 by William of Wykeham, is a day and boarding school situated in the cathedral city of Winchester. Almost all pupils are male and are boarders. Members of the school's governing body, known as The Warden and Fellows, are also the trustees of the original foundation.

Since September 2022, a very small number of male day pupils and sixth-form female day pupils have occupied a further ten boarding houses located close by. Separate accommodation for sixth-form female pupils provides changing and study accommodation for their use during the day. They are also been admitted. Scholars board in the original school buildings and other pupils, known as commoners, are attached to one of the boarding houses where they can eat in the evening and stay later if they wish.
