About this Event
Independent Schools Show New York 2027
Discover the Best of British Boarding Education
The Independent Schools Show New York returns for its third year, following two highly successful events that have reflected the growing interest among American families in the opportunities offered by a British education.
An increasing number of families from New York City, Westchester and Long Island are looking beyond the US education system, drawn by the academic excellence, global outlook, rich traditions, and character-building experiences that Britain's leading independent boarding schools provide.
Hosted at the iconic Pratt Mansions on Fifth Avenue, this exclusive evening brings together a carefully selected group of the UK's finest boarding schools, giving you the opportunity to explore an education that prepares young people for success at the world's leading universities and beyond.
Meet heads, admissions directors, and senior school representatives, ask your questions in person, and gain expert insight into boarding life, the UK curriculum, admissions, scholarships, and the application process. Whether you're just beginning to explore international education or are actively considering a British boarding school for your child, you'll leave with practical advice and a clearer understanding of the opportunities available.
