Health and wellbeing are central to student development. A dedicated pastoral team provides care and support for every student to maximise wellbeing. Extracurricular activities strengthen physical and mental wellbeing, and performing arts develop confidence, creative thinking, public speaking and social skills. Sport promotes teamwork and social development and supports students' overall wellbeing through physical activity and competition. Inspired exchanges and global camps broaden social learning and cross-cultural understanding.

The school provides access to trained nurses and school counsellors to support vulnerable students.
The curriculum is delivered in English, and students applying for entry are required to be proficient English speakers.
