Our mentoring program helps to ensure that each student has what they need to succeed, thrive, and feel comfortable during their time at King’s College.
Every student is allocated an adult mentor. The mentor’s role is to help the student establish a strong support network and achieve their goals amidst the busy school environment. This trusted relationship is a foundation for students as they progress through their schooling and a resource they can call on when they need a helping hand.
Mentors are not therapists, counsellors or disciplinarians—there are counselling services, the Health Centre, a Careers Department, Housemasters, and senior leadership team for those aspects of pastoral care. Part of the mentor role is to refer the student to specialist services where necessary.
