Coming to a new school is a big step. It can seem very daunting when you do not know anyone else in the year group. We know that this can be a time when our pupils need reassurance and encouragement and we do everything that we can to help them to settle in happily. Our primary concern is to ensure the wellbeing and progress of each individual.

Within the Senior School, pastoral care is the responsibility of an integrated team of year and form tutors who monitor each girl’s progress in all aspects of her school life, providing guidance, encouragement and support. Behaviour at Bolton School is excellent and we encourage all our pupils to treat each other with respect, courtesy and consideration.

Each form in Years 7, 8 and 9 has two form tutors who share the pastoral care of the girls, ensuring closer monitoring of their development. From Year 10 upwards, girls are in smaller tutor groups, each with one Form Tutor.

Throughout we do our best to ensure that each student is happy, successful and enjoys her time with us.
