The Principal chaired the monthly Boarding meeting at which Richard Bampfylde, BHS Marketing Manager, presented a paper on effective promotion of boarding particularly looking ahead to the beginning of 2022-2023 session. They had some discussion of potential boarding fees for that session, but agreed that it was too early to propose these given the volatility of the Lebanese currency and the uncertainty of the economic situation. They looked at ways of promoting the Boarding House such as by using it as a function suite following sports matches and through encouraging visits to it by visitors to the school in order to make it a better known feature of school life. They talked about promotions in the press, on social media and to the Lebanese diaspora while also considering the summer camp and the summer educational programme, both of which will be discussed at an initial meeting next week, to start off the 2022 summer educational programme and summer camp later this year.
