Boarders follows five talented Black inner-city teens transported to an alien world—an elite British boarding school—after gaining scholarships to the prestigious St. Gilbert’s.

“I can’t wait for audiences to dive into our third and final season of Boarders,” said writer, creator and executive producer Taylor. “This final chapter delivers all the fun, funnies and messiness that fans have come to adore. I’m incredibly grateful for the love and support the show has received—it’s truly been a labor of love. Here’s to one last ride!”

“We’ve been so lucky with our hugely talented cast on Boarders, from our brilliant returning characters to the exciting new faces joining for series three,” said Madeleine Sinclair, creative director of scripted at Studio Lambert. “This final term at St Gilbert’s goes out with a bang, as Daniel’s scripts take us on a wild journey of ambition, rivalry and mayhem. We’ve pulled out all the stops to give Boarders the send-off that this special show, and its wonderful fans, deserve”.
