Inside the Pastoral Care at CATS Cambridge: Tutors, House Parents & Counsellors

At CATS Cambridge, pastoral care is at the heart of our commitment to student wellbeing. We understand that transitioning to a new school—especially for international students—can be challenging. That’s why we provide a comprehensive support system led by dedicated tutors, house parents, and counsellors who work collaboratively to ensure every student thrives academically, socially, and emotionally throughout their time with us.

Our experienced tutors are the first point of contact for students, offering personalised academic guidance and regular progress reviews. They help students set realistic goals, manage workloads, and develop effective study habits tailored to individual needs. This one-on-one attention fosters confidence and resilience, crucial for success in demanding academic programmes like A-Levels and the University Foundation Programme.

Complementing the academic support, our house parents create a safe and nurturing environment within boarding houses. They oversee daily routines, encourage positive social interaction, and provide emotional support, helping students feel at home away from home. Their round-the-clock presence ensures that students have someone to turn to, fostering a sense of community and belonging.

Additionally, our professional counsellors are available to address mental health and wellbeing concerns. They offer confidential support for issues such as homesickness, stress, or anxiety, helping students build coping strategies and maintain a healthy balance. Together, this pastoral team works seamlessly to create a supportive framework that empowers students to flourish in both school life and personal development.
