The scholarship students – Jaheim, Leah, Omar, Femi, and Toby – return for their final term with exams looming and big plans for the future. But the pressure ramps up fast when a rivalry with a neighbouring school boils over, leading to violence, messy love triangles, and friendships pushed to breaking point.
With Abby now at the rival school, tensions feel more personal than ever, and the group has to decide how far they’re willing to go to protect their futures.
Below, you’ll find the full release details and how to stream "Boarders" season 3 from anywhere with a VPN, including how to use a VPN if you’re travelling.
Watch 'Boarders' season 3 from anywhere
If you’re travelling and find that your usual streaming service is blocked, a VPN (virtual private network) can make your device appear as though it’s back in your home country. That way, you can keep using the subscriptions you already pay for, just as you would on your sofa at home.
We regularly test VPNs, and NordVPN is one of the best all‑round options for streaming thanks to its fast speeds, reliable unblocking, and wide device support. It also comes with a 30‑day money‑back guarantee, so you can see how it works with your setup before fully committing.
Using a VPN is simple.
1. Install the VPN app on the device you’ll watch on. NordVPN is our pick.
2. Connect to a server in your home country. For example, choose a UK server to access BBC iPlayer while abroad.
3. Open your streaming app and play as normal.
Watch 'Boarders' season 3 in the U.K.
In the U.K., the easiest way to watch is on BBC iPlayer, where all six episodes of "Boarders" season 3 will be available as a box set from 6 a.m. on Sunday, March 15.
Need to catch up before diving into the final term? Seasons 1 and 2 are also available to stream on BBC iPlayer in the U.K.
If you’re outside the U.K. when season 3 lands, a VPN like NordVPN can help you securely access BBC iPlayer.
Watch 'Boarders' season 3 in the U.S.

Watch 'Boarders' season 3 in Canada
In Canada, "Boarders" season 3 will also be available on Tubi from Sunday, March 15. As in the U.S., it’s free to watch with ads.
