Boarding at Abingdon - page 9

We have always been reassured by an approach
that treats all the boys as though they are part of
an extended family and that encourages the older
boys to take care of the younger ones – in contrast
to the historical picture of British public schools!

Pastoral care
The School’s excellent
is the backbone of our boarding.
Our aim above all is to ensure boys are happy within our community.
Boys’ tutors, their housemasters and the house matrons form strong
relationships with families. All of our boarding housemasters and tutors
also teach and run
activities, ensuring important continuity
between the boys’ day-time and boarding experience. Should they need
it, boys have access to a health professional 24/7. We also have a
on site and a team of school councillors.
