The welfare of all our students is at the heart of our school. We make sure they have the structure and support they need by creating the right academic, social and emotional environment.
On arrival at Box Hill School, both boarding and day students are allocated to a School House. The ethos of each House is based around the family, with Houseparents who are the guiding influence. Houseparents can call on a team of helpers; a resident assistant, the school nurses and other academic staff, to ensure the wellbeing of each child. Just as at home, pupils are loyal to their House and they enjoy many activities and competitions together. Every House has a common room and a kitchen so that students can prepare their own light refreshments and snacks, as well as eating their main meals with the rest of the school in the main dining hall.
For parents, we’ve set up a special website that will help them stay in touch, called ‘Parents In Touch’. It contains the latest House newsletters and blogs, homework comments and examination information and results. It also gives parents the opportunity to contact Houseparents and staff to discuss any points of interest or concern.
