In an ever-evolving world, true pastoral care is long-term and embraces all elements of student life. Meeting the pastoral needs of students can be a challenge, particularly in relation to children’s emotional and mental health. Quality pastoral care sits at the heart of MAMS. We believe that children learn best when they are happy and educated in a safe and comfortable family-like atmosphere. Trained staff members, including a housemistress and a housemaster, along with a string of support staff, are entrusted with the well-being of the children and ensuring that the needs of our pupils are fully met.
• To enable each student to reach their full academic and social potential.
• To ensure that each student has access to appropriate personal, vocational, and academic guidance and support.
• To provide students with opportunities and to encourage them to take on personal and social responsibility.
• To instil qualities like self-awareness and self-confidence so they are able to face the challenges, both academic and personal, that might come their way.
• To establish and maintain harmonious relations with parents in order to help prepare students for the opportunities, responsibilities, and experiences of adult life.
• To foster a caring and safe environment in which students are valued not for who they are but for what they can do.
High quality of Pastoral Care predicts certain likely positive outcomes:
• Helps prevent problems both personal and academic.
• Helps in imbibing better problem-solving and coping skills by developing skills like resilience and objectivity.
• Helps students in building high self-esteem which further raises the standard of student behaviour.
• Helps defuse conflicts and leads to enhanced interpersonal relationships.
• Leads to higher academic performance by reducing conflicts, lower stress levels and developing a feeling of contentment
• Improves school-parent relations as the parents demonstrate more faith and trust in the school.
