The happiness and wellbeing of our students is a top priority. We want them to enjoy their time at Stonyhurst in a safe and nurturing environment, and we hope that they will look back fondly upon the many memories they will make here.

The structure we have put in place for pastoral care is designed to ensure that each student feels emotionally secure and knows who to turn to should they need that little bit of extra support.

Each year group (known as a Playroom) has its own Head of Playroom, who will have an overview of each student’s complete experience at Stonyhurst. From academic performance to pastoral issues, the Head of Playroom maintains a holistic view and by staying with their year group for the duration of its time at the College, they build a solid understanding of each individual. There is also a team of pastoral staff, headed up by experienced Pastoral Heads. This team is responsible for the emotional wellbeing of day students and boarders and is dedicated to ensuring that rules are followed to make Stonyhurst a positive and vibrant community where every individual student feels at home and secure.

At Stonyhurst, we develop strong links with our pupils’ families, and we encourage parents to be closely involved with us.

“The pastoral care of the pupils and arrangements for their welfare, health and safety are excellent.”
