Nurturing the whole boy
Our comprehensive Pastoral Care Program is designed to support, nurture and challenge each boy as he journeys through the school.
At Scotch, we challenge our students to discover their true potential, guided by dedicated staff, their peers and the wider Scotch Family. Scotch educates boys to take an outward-facing perspective to life, helping them find purpose and resilience.
Boys are immersed in a range of activities and educational programs to foster grounded confidence and personal development. Specific, targeted academic support is provided by qualified Educational Support staff. The school Chaplains and Psychologists play a key role in boys’ welfare. They are available for guidance and support throughout each boy’ s school years and beyond.
Junior School
Prep to Year 6
As boys begin their Scotch journey in the Junior School, emphasis is placed on providing a warm and caring environment in which they can develop self-esteem, motivation, a sense of personal responsibility and social skills.
Class teachers are responsible for the overall development and happiness of the boys. They take time to understand each student and his interests, creating the foundation of trust and mutual respect that supports growth and exploration. Christian Education, chapel services and support from our Chaplains help boys develop strong values. Additional care is provided through the House system, through cross-age tutoring activities and the Pastoral Care Coordinator.
