Do older pupils have responsibility for younger ones?
Compassion and a sense of responsibility are amongst the qualities we foster so we look for opportunities for pupils to demonstrate both irrespective of what stage they are at in the Prep School or Senior School. Older pupils, particularly as Sixth Formers, do have specific duties that include oversight of younger pupils and encouraging them to participate in the life of the School. Prefects are given training and guidance to develop their skills. The house system gives opportunities for a wider range of older pupils to support and lead younger ones for instance as captain of a House team or in preparing for the House music or drama competition.
