A message from the Headmistress

Kent College is committed to providing continuity of education during this difficult time.  To do this we have enthusiastically embraced online remote learning. New technology and personalised support are combined to keep our girls learning, whilst also maintaining the excellent pastoral care that sets us apart from other schools. Learning can be remote but the girls don’t have to feel alone.

As well as maintaining the academic provision for the girls, we are investing equal time, energy and resource into supporting them pastorally, just as we would when they are at school.  We are continuing with form time at the beginning of the day when tutors ensure that the girls and their families are all well.  Tutors are also checking that girls are coping with the work being delivered and set, and that their friendships and online social lives are happy and healthy.   Our Chaplain is recording his weekly assembly for the girls, which reinforces our school ethos of doing ‘all the good you can’.

I am glad to report that Kent College is in good heart and ‘social distancing’ has only served to bring us closer as a school community.  There is no doubt that it has made us all appreciate friends and family all the more.  While the pupils being affected by these extraordinary circumstances are now having to bear the direct consequences on their young lives, I feel certain that, as a result, they will become a real force for good, and many will become pioneers in finding ways to make the world a far better place for future generations.

I wish you all well.
