Sector Leading Pastoral Care

Prep

Whatever the issue, whatever the time

Gordonstoun feels like a big, international family. If you speak to our pupils, they will tell you that Gordonstoun is a home from home.

Over 500 young people live at Gordonstoun, in a safe, friendly and welcoming environment. And our pastoral staff are here for every one of them, whatever the issue, whatever the time.

 

The pastoral care and friendliness of the staff gives the children confidence to ask for help in the knowledge they will be supported.

Prep Houseparent, Jess Noakes, lives within the boarding house with her partner, their son and their dogs. Together with the Assistant House Parent, Matrons and Prep School Assistants they provide the highest level of care.

Day pupils receive excellent pastoral care too. A Day Pupils’ Coordinator being an important liaison between the school and home. Form Teachers are another important parental link, overseeing each child’s development and reporting on progress. 

An additional layer of support is provided by a counsellor and emotional guidance coach, when the need arises.
