Student Dormitories
When a child moves into a boarding house, trust comes first. At Open Gate, we create an environment where students feel safe, comfortable, and truly at ease. Just like at home.
Open Gate Boarding School
Open Gate is unique among Czech eight-year grammar schools in offering on-campus boarding accommodation directly within the school grounds. Thanks to this, students from all over the Czech Republic are able to study here. At the Open Gate boarding houses, students are cared for by an experienced team of residential educators who are available day and night. They provide daily supervision, support with academic preparation, and encourage each student’s individual development.
Students benefit from comfortable accommodation, balanced meals, a wide range of extracurricular activities, and spaces for active relaxation. We guide students towards independence, helping them learn to manage their time, take responsibility, and function confidently within a community. The boarding houses at Open Gate are open to both scholarship students and those whose families pay tuition, and this diversity fosters friendships that often last a lifetime.
Accommodation
The boarding houses provide a safe and supportive environment directly within the school campus. Students are accommodated according to their age in rooms with en-suite facilities and meet in shared common areas, where they spend their free time together.
A Week at Boarding
Life at the boarding house follows a clear structure and daily rhythm, while still leaving plenty of space for rest and leisure. Whatever the situation, students can always rely on the support of adults — including at weekends.
Dining
Boarding students have access to full-day meals, including morning and afternoon snacks, as well as a second dinner. The school cafeteria prepares fresh, balanced meals, taking into account their individual needs.
Extracurricular Activities
We turn free time into an opportunity. Students can choose from dozens of clubs directly on campus, where they can develop their talents, try new things, and discover what they enjoy. From sports to creative activities.
Flexiboarding
Occasionally, even students who live at home and commute to school may find it useful to stay overnight at school. That’s why the boarding houses offer short-term accommodation. It’s ideal for evening events or during exam periods.
Open Gate Campus
The school’s boarding houses are located directly within the Open Gate campus, in a safe and peaceful environment surrounded by nature. Here, you'll find a sports hall, outdoor courts, an indoor pool, a farm with horses, a school theatre, a ceramics workshop, an art studio, and a library with 40,000 books.
Boarding House Team
At the boarding houses, students are cared for daily by an experienced team of residential educators. They are their support, guides, companions, and often second parents who truly care about the students. They are always ready to listen, encourage, support, and even make them laugh. The residential educators at Open Gate are professionals with appropriate educational qualifications and extensive experience working with children and young people. Each educator is responsible for about fifteen students of a similar age, which creates space for a personalized approach and the development of a trusting relationship.
