Uppingham Cairo was the first to open in 2024, followed by a second campus in 2026.
Uppingham's own international-schools page says the second Egypt campus is scheduled to open in 2027, not 2026.
Full reasoning
This sentence is contradicted by Uppingham School's official Egypt page. That page states: "From September 2028, Uppingham will have two schools in Egypt" and, more specifically, "Scheduled to open in 2027, Uppingham New Cairo...". So the second Egyptian campus is not described by the school itself as opening in 2026.
Because the school's current official page gives a later opening year, the claim that a second Egypt campus followed in 2026 is inaccurate.

Uppingham Cairo opened in September 2024 as the first overseas school in the Uppingham Group of Schools.
From 2025, Farleigh became a dedicated sixth form house for boys entering the school at age 16.
Uppingham's admissions policy says Farleigh becomes a sixth-form boys' house from 2026, not from 2025.
Full reasoning
Uppingham School's own admissions policy for 2025 states that boys entering at 16+ will join "Farleigh House which becomes a sixth form house from 2026." That directly conflicts with the claim here that this happened from 2025.
The school's current house page also describes Farleigh as "a Sixth Form boys' boarding house", which is consistent with Farleigh being sixth-form-only now. But the official policy gives the transition date as 2026, so the article's date of 2025 is incorrect.

The majority of these girls join The Lodge, a house dedicated to girls who join at this point and an increasing number of boys will join Farleigh House which becomes a sixth form house from 2026.

Farleigh — Boys' 16+ boarding house. Farleigh is a Sixth Form boys' boarding house.
The 'Town Houses' are School House, Lorne House, West Deyne (1859) and West Bank (1866);
Lorne House is no longer a boys' boarding house; Uppingham now identifies it as the Lower School house.
Full reasoning
Uppingham School's current Lower School page identifies Lorne House as "The Lower School House" for pupils in Years 7 and 8, not as a boys' boarding house. The school's current map likewise labels it "Lorne House (Lower School)".
So this list is outdated: it places Lorne House among the boys' boarding Town Houses, but the school now classifies Lorne House as the dedicated Lower School house.
