What pastoral support is available for boarders?
Within the two Boarding Houses we have a boys’ Housemaster, girls’ Housemistress and assistants. The school matron is on site during school hours and all boarders are registered with a local doctor. For many pupils their housemaster or mistress becomes a surrogate parent, they can be assured that there is always someone to talk to and share their concerns and celebrations.
