The Resident Pastoral Assistant is involved in the everyday running of the House and, whilst their main role is to build positive relationships with the pupils in their care, they will also assist with the laundry, supervise the children at different points throughout the day, help with the daily jobs in the House and take part in school outings and trips at weekends as well as getting involved in all aspects of a thriving Boarding School life.
