Pastoral Care for Academic Excellence

Pastoral Care

Merlin College believes that every child is precious. Our Anti- Bullying team of teachers along with a cohort of Class Tutors, Year Heads and Counselors strive to make sure your child is safe and happy.

Academia and the Arts

All students are encouraged to express themselves through the Arts. We believe Fine art, music and drama are essential for allowing students to express themselves and lends itself also to Academic success.

Extracurricular
