All students, both day and boarding belong to one of six boarding Houses. Each House is run by a Housemaster or Housemistress, many of whom live in with their family which makes the House an extension of their home. They are helped by their Assistant Housemaster or Mistress, a Matron, who organises domestic welfare, including laundry for the boarders, and the House Tutors who oversee the academic progress and social welfare of their tutees.
All students register each morning and after lunch with their Tutor and once a week the tutor groups meet to discuss progress and any issues a student may have. Tutor groups are kept deliberately small, around ten to a group and in this way Tutors get to know their tutees very well. Tutors are also the first point of contact for parents.
Occassionally, there may be an issue that a student may not wish to discuss with their Tutor and they might benefit from the complete confidentiality offered by our Chaplain, our Nursing Sister or a school counsellor.
Our Medical Centre provides twenty-four hour qualified medical cover with a resident Nursing Sister. This is available for both day and boarding students.
