Pastoral care team 2020

One of the special features of St Paul’s is the strength of our Pastoral Care system.

We have provided our day and boarding students with a house common room that they can use each week-day before, during and after school. Each common room has a Housemaster’s office attached (Day Houses) or close by (Boarders). Each house meets at 8.05 am on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays for a roll call, to discuss house activities and to allow Housemasters to catch up with their students. Each of the houses is quite small (i.e. approximately 70-90 students) and have a Housemaster, Assistant Housemaster(s) and Tutors who will support the students in their care for the period of time that they will be at St Paul’s. A student’s Housemaster should be the first port of call for a parent with an enquiry about their son or daughter’s progress.
