What is it like to attend a conference where people genuinely understand the experience of being sent away to boarding school?
In this short episode, Piers Cross shares details of the Boarding School Concern Conference 2026, taking place in London on Saturday 7 November.
Piers has attended the conference several times and reflects on why it can be particularly valuable for former boarders who are beginning to question the impact boarding school may have had on their relationships, emotional lives, identity and wellbeing.
This year’s programme includes Nick Duffell, Rachel Godfrey and John Shirley, John Stanley, Helena Thomas and a wide range of afternoon groups exploring relationships, Third Culture Kids, family dynamics, bullying, creative writing, poetry and healing. BSConcern
Piers also discusses SENT AWAY: The BSConcern Anthology of Boarding School Poems, which explores separation, attachment rupture and the long-term psychological legacy of boarding through poetry. BSConcern
Perhaps most importantly, the conference offers something difficult to find elsewhere:
a community of people who understand.
For somebody attending for the first time, that alone can be enormously powerful.
