In the UK, there are some 500 accredited boarding schools in membership of either the Independent Schools Council or the Boarding Schools Association with a total boarding population of around 70,000.
Service parents are eligible to claim the Continuity of Education Allowance, which provides assistance with meeting the boarding fee. Consequently, Service children make up a vital proportion of those boarding, and their needs and special circumstances are well understood within the schools. In 2008–09 the Ministry of Defence spent £172,844,735 on boarding school fees for 9,090 children from Armed Forces families.** The 9,090 (one in eight of the total boarding population) came from 5,710 Officers, 3,320 Noncommissioned Officers and 60 Other Ranks.
