  • Summary

  • Did many people feel homesick at boarding school?

    Reading the biographies of Bear Grylls, Minnie Driver, Jeremy Paxman, Roald Dahl we can see that they all suffered with homesickness.

    Today I also explore the work of Joy Schaverien in Boarding School Syndrome where she says, "Homesickness has been reframed as bereavement."

    Are we really bereaved rather than homesick?

    Take care,

    Piers
