Our location 

Located in the safe British countryside, between two National Parks – The UNESCO Lake District World Heritage Site and the Yorkshire Dales – and the coastline on the doorstep it is easy to see why this part of the UK inspired world-famous writers and artists such as Wordsworth and JMW Turner. 

Our history 

Dallam School’s history dates back to the 1600s and it has a long history of boarding. The historic buildings have been updated and new facilities have recently been added to make sure your child’s experience in the UK is authentic but with all the modern facilities you would expect.
