Wellbeing
At King’s, wellbeing isn’t a separate initiative - it is part of our everyday life. This is reflected in how students are supported, how staff work together, and how families are included in the journey. From the first day, students are welcomed into a community that values respect, kindness and understanding.
Wellbeing is built into the way we teach, the way we listen, and the way we respond. It is in the small things - a tutor checking in, a friend offering support, our pastoral space which gives students the opportunity to pause and reflect. It is about making sure every student feels safe, heard and able to be themselves.
Why does it matter? Because when students feel secure and supported, they are more confident, more engaged, and better equipped to learn and grow. At King’s, we believe that wellbeing is the foundation for everything else, and we take it seriously.
