Suggestion - Boarding Schools

@dornelesbb  Yes +Me Too. Boarding Schools would be a good addition and offer new storytelling opportunities for different types of Sim families. I made a similar suggestion in my proposal for a Back To School pack that would open up new school options and more ways to learn.

Post Link: IDEA: Back to School

rabbit-holes or not i want the boarding school pack so i'm definitely in for that pack

Could we have a private boarding school you can send your sims too. There should be option to choose uniform and choose who is allowed in school. (All boys/ girls school) 

You should be able to go to the school (not rabbit hole). 

You should have a choice to be a day pupil and not live in a boarding house/ dorm. There would be two boarding houses : boys and girls or chose how to split and they could rival each other or be friendly competion. 

There should be a teacher career where you can actually play and be a teacher at the school (not rabbit hole). You could build up popularity like on get famous and find that balance between being like and too strict / too nice so that your students will get good grades.

The world could be a UK based world. Can there also be a normal secondary school? The world could be split into two and the schools could rival each other. The normal school would be an inner gritty city state school and then the boarding school would be in a countryside posh neighbourhood. 

They could play sports against each other and rival each other / be friends/ friendly competition. 

Boarding school lot types would be so much fun! Like child and teen sims can stay at schools and have dorms, school grounds, and even have riding, outdoor painting, and woodwork lessons. Maybe set in a world like Henford on Bageley, or granite falls, with forests and hills around where sims can go trekking, picnics, or school camps. There might be two schools on different ends of the map, and some village squares where sims can go on weekends, like with permission slips. On vacations they can go back to their parents. Also number of sims should be increased in these schools, than average high schools.

School games between rival schools, fests, annual days, and many more celebrations and competitions can be held! It also be really cool if sims could form chat groups with friends, and a particular group of sims could always stick together and not drift off. 

I don't see the appeal. Sims can do all those activities while staying at home, they don't need boarding schools for that. Basically it would be like university, but for younger ages.

I would love this idea! I like to create my own boarding schools in my game where I send all of the wealthy sims children. But it would be fun to have a built in system!

When renovating the high school I believe there should be a settings panel where you can set if its a boarding school or not, the uniform with an option to not have a uniform, set the schedule and hire the staff.

When you play as Mei Prescott (the head teacher), she doesn't work at the school, I believe she "owns" the school and she can hire the staff and set the schedule. 

She won't "own" the school like you would a retail store or a restaurant but she would run it. She wouldn't pay the bills for the school but the shool has separate funds.

Hi,

Let's explore what Discover University and High School Years didn't add yet.

• Boarding Staff active career : "The Boarding Staff works to support the well-being of all the students who live within the Boarding House and aims to create a safe environment where students feel valued and cared for. The team provides supervision and assistance for the students in both their educational and free-time activities 24/7 on campus."
• Occult lessons : Ghost, vampire, spellcaster and werewolf teens will obtain perk points.
• Rebellious activities : Paint graffitis, break curfew, protest
• Visiting Day : Parents checking the teen's well-being and school performances. Parents should care about the education of their child because they are paying for that.
• Boarding School lot in any world : Like Small Business lot, there are public rooms and residential rooms.
• School settings :
  • Rules : For example bite people is allowed but be friendly is totally forbidden. Direct impact on the Character Values and Self Discovery.
  • Level of difficulty : Challenging homework and exams, some teens may cheat, just don't be caught.
  • Targeted students : Occult, human, ...
  • Dress code : School uniform or casual outfit
  • Boarding fees : From free to very expensive (§100.000 per week)
• Childhood friends : This environment create shared memories and strong relationship
• Wearable backpack from TS3 EP09 University Life
• Performance Reward  : when the teen will get a job, thanks to the boarding school, the career performance will be high without efforts up to career level 6.

I'd like us to be able to have more than one high school. That way, we could have school rivals and events such as varsity sports, which could lead to more sports for our Sims to play.

There are so many options we could have: public and private, spellcaster school, and vampire schools. We could tailor the lessons each school offers. Just adding more personalized options for schools, I think, would improve the pack, as I don't enjoy it as it is. It needs more.

i was thinking about having an boarding school Expansion Pack too,
i can't think of any for boarding school ideas but i'm totally in for your ideas

it can be similair to Britechester you can't enter the house unless you sign up for it

i'm definitely in for your pack ideas😉😉
