We care more – Pastoral Care

Students achieve most when they feel happy, secure and cared for. Our pastoral care is therefore central to the success of the College and our students.

• Each student is under the overall care of a personal Tutor
• Each student is a member of one of our four Houses, which are led by our Senior Tutors
• Each Senior Tutor oversees the pastoral welfare of the students in their House for the entire time our students are at the College
• Within the College many competitions are organised on a House basis and each year, four trophies are presented to the winning House, based academic, sporting and cultural achievements over the whole year

 

Building a culture of wellbeing at ECP

In very broad terms, wellbeing can be described as the quality of a person’s life. Wellbeing needs to be considered in relation to how we feel and function across several areas, including our cognitive, emotional, social, physical and spiritual wellbeing.

We have decided to approach wellbeing in an organised way in response to the pandemic, stronger requirements in UK legislation and also as a clear trend in international education.

We have introduced programmes for teachers, employees and students including organising wellbeing groups, satisfaction and feedback surveys, development of a wellbeing section on the intranet, increasing visibility of wellbeing, wellbeing webinars for students and parents, Mental Health First Aid and building new relationships with outside experts.

As is typical in many British schools, the College is divided into four Houses representing the four elements of Life or VITA:
