At Kenton College Preparatory School, Learning Thrives in a Caring Community

 

At Kenton College, we cultivate a caring learning environment where children are not only academically successful but are happy, confident and inquisitive. Our focus extends beyond the classroom, prioritising the holistic development of each child.
 

We believe that a nurturing and secure environment is crucial for children to reach their full potential. Our dedicated Pastoral Care team, led by the Headteacher, Deputy Head Pastoral and Deputy Head of Juniors and EY, works tirelessly to ensure every child feels valued and supported.

The Pastoral Care network comprises of Heads of Year, House Parents, Form/Class Teachers, the Listening Team, Pupil Pastoral Mentors, the school doctor, and school nurses. This collaborative approach ensures that every child receives the individual attention they need to thrive.​​

Core Values: Guiding Our Community

Underpinning our Pastoral Care are the core values of honesty, courage, respect and kindness. Through assemblies, Wellbeing and Wellness sessions, on the sports’ field, and in the classroom, children learn to celebrate individual and collective achievements, develop empathy and build strong relationships with their peers.

​

Nurturing Wellbeing

Our Wellbeing programme equips children with the essential skills to manage their mental health as well as fostering a positive attitude to life. Weekly Wellbeing sessions, culminating in Friday afternoon Wellness sessions, provide opportunities for children to engage with relevant topics, build self-confidence and a strong sense of community.

​

Our vibrant School Council enables our children to develop leadership skills and contribute to school life. Pupil Pastoral Mentors and the Listening Team reassure our pupils that there is always someone ready to listen and help.

​

At Kenton College, we are proud of the joy, enthusiasm and academic growth of our children. We work hard to ensure that every child can flourish and reach their full potential.
