Student Wellbeing Pastoral care and wellbeing initiatives take place throughout MLC School. While lighting the path for our students is a role we all share, there are times when girls and families benefit from the assistance of our highly qualified and experienced counselling team. Counselling Team Anna Michalopoulos Head of Counselling and Student Health Susan Rountree Psychologist Marion Delprado Counsellor John Hensley Psychologist Pastoral Care Team Positive academic outcomes depend on emotional strength. Pastoral care at MLC School is designed to help girls navigate and grow wiser from the bumps in the journey. In the Senior School, each Year group has a Head of Year – someone who knows and understands each and every girl. The Head of Year is the person to go to when working through all academic and social concerns, which are often intertwined. They are supported by Deputy Head of Senior School – Pastoral and Counsellors. In the Junior School, the class teacher is the first point of contact for any academic and pastoral matters. They are supported by the Deputy Head of Junior School – Wellbeing and Counsellors. The Reverends are also part of the wider pastoral care team.
