It is increasingly the case that current Haileyburians live in and around Hertfordshire. Even as modern transport becomes more sophisticated and longer journeys are possible in shorter times the catchment area contracts. One of the reasons for the severance of formal links with Lambrook Haileybury (the last incarnation of the Junior School) is that Windsor parents think Haileybury is just too far away. This is as true of boarders (still about two thirds of the senior school population) as day pupils.
The exceptions are the numbers of German pupils who come to study IB in the VI form and Khzakhs throughout the school thanks to our strong links in Kazakhstan. Of course there are also individuals from many nations. By and large, however, your modern Haileyburian lives in Hertfordshire.
All the more pleasing then to see that Haileyburians, and people with an interest in Haileybury continue to spread round the world. The map shows the places in which this bog was read in the last month.
