Boarding / Pastoral Care
With modern single en-suite rooms and shared commul kitchens, students get to experience some of the feel of university life, whilst having the safety and support provided by our team of excellent boarding staff. The boarding accommodation is right next to the teaching block, making it quick and easy to move between the two, meaning no time is lost travelling. Our boarding community represents an exciting and culturally diverse community. Our smaller size means that it has the feel of a large and caring family where everyone knows everyone else. In addition, every student has membership to a top quality gym and swimming pool just a couple of minutes’s walk from the College.
Our students are supported through a joined up pastoral care programme made up of their College tutors, boarding staff, our professiol College Counsellor, all ably led by our Pastoral Co-orditor. Alongside their academic studies our students also cover key persol areas in our specialist taught PSHE programme.
