Pastoral care

Having the right support is crucial if you want to flourish in your field. So we prioritise your welfare, with a pastoral care programme designed to help you navigate the highs and lows of elite performance.

Pastoral Excellence


At Milverton, your welfare comes first

When you’re striving for excellence, you’re on a journey with many ups and downs. And you can only achieve success when you have a solid foundation beneath you.

That’s why compassion and understanding are essential ingredients of our pastoral care programme, along with structured support to enable you to not only achieve, but to thrive.

When you enrol at Milverton Online School, you’ll be paired with a personal mentor who’ll provide the advice and support you need to develop your skills and reach your goals.

And you’ll take part in weekly wellbeing sessions where you can explore topics such as physical and mental health, peer to peer relationships and digital citizenship.

    More about Weekly Wellbeing

“Mentoring is making me open to a lot of different ideas and it's also a good way to catch up and talk about how your week has been.”

Online School Student

“The twice weekly pastoral sessions where mentors check in on the wellbeing of the student and guide them through large scale passion projects on top of their academic curriculum, gives my son a level of support that would be difficult to duplicate in a traditional school setting.”
