Best Boys Boarding For 2 Very Different Twins

You have to consider if you are looking for weekly board or a full boarding school. And also, some schools have a high proportion of day pupils which might not make it ideal for those who board.

Would you consider splitting them to get the school that suits each best?
I only say this because as an ex-boarder I think the fit of the school matters so much more when you board. After all, if you had boy/girl twins and wanted boarding you might well choose to split.

Radley sounds like it might fit. Put them in different houses to let each twin flourish in his own way?

How old are they?

Which schools have you already visited with them?

Are they both equally suited to boarding? (Obviously if they’re very young you won’t know ...)

And of course it would depend on where they each get in. Are they already at a school that could give an indication of the best route for each?

If they both had different favourites I would separate them. Eton might be the best fit for both. It has hockey, access to countryside, loads of ball games, varied music, and should suit sociable boys and loners (it seems to have less enforced community activities than some other schools and boys are given slightly more freedom/responsibilities to manage own time. Also has single rooms). Still would expect a sociable boy to enjoy Eton or any boarding school more, as an introverted person might find boarding in general tiring and draining.

Have you considered that the same school might not suit them? My twin boys (non-id) go to different schools and are very happy
