Pastoral Care
We take great pride in our pastoral care, ensuring that our students are well-supported and nurtured in a happy and healthy environment. Our dedicated teachers provide personalised care, guiding each child through their learning journey and helping them to develop resilience and adaptability. We understand the importance of emotional wellbeing as a foundation for effective education, recognising that happy children are more likely to succeed and be better prepared for learning.
Life brings challenges to all of us, and children are no exception. Our caring and supportive teachers are always available to help students navigate their ups and downs, fostering an atmosphere of understanding and encouragement while building resilience and self-esteem.
Safeguarding
The school has a duty of care to safeguard and promote the welfare of its students. Safeguarding our students is always our number one priority. Our commitment to safeguarding is outlined in our Safeguarding Policy.
All members of our team are trained in the latest safeguarding practices, and all new staff undergo extensive background checks before any appointment is confirmed.
Wellbeing
Good emotional and physical health is the foundation of effective learning
At King's College Riyadh, we are dedicated to promoting the wellbeing of our students in line with the Cognita Be Well Charter. We actively apply the Charter’s six pillars in various ways, including promoting healthy food choices. Regular physical activity is also embedded into the daily routine, ensuring students participate in sports and minimise prolonged periods of sitting throughout the day.
Our focus on connecting with others involves social responsibility and enterprise. We actively encourage our students and families to engage in giving and doing activities, enriching their lives and positively impacting the wider community.
