tutorial system
The School’s core strength lies in its tutorial system.
The word tutor derives from Latin, and its original meaning included protection, guardianship and watching over someone. Our tutors fulfil these roles, in addition to the more obvious modern, academic sense of the word.
Before arriving at Bryanston, each pupil is thoughtfully matched with a personal tutor based on insights gained during the admissions process about the pupil’s interests and character. Tutor and pupil will remain together throughout the student’s time here – and so each tutor will be there to watch over the academic development of their charges from start to finish, and also their personal development.
Considering what happens in the years the pupil is here – intellectual and physical growth, academic and extra-curricular success – none of which ever goes to plan, or without a hiccup – the tutor’s job is vital.
