Life At CISM

At CISM we see student wellbeing underpinned by strong pastoral support and guidance as crucial to academic success.

Our pastoral system enables each child and young person under our care to feel happy, safe, and supported. This enables our students to get the very most of their time within the classroom, as well as helping to develop self-esteem and equip them to choose a healthy and fulfilling lifestyle. We hope that it will also enable them to be more informed, confident, and skilled to interact effectively with others, enabling them to take an active and responsible part in society.

Pastoral Care

A key feature of CISM is the relationships that exist between students and staff, and among the students themselves. We are very proud of the care, guidance, and support we give to our students, which enable us to provide personalised academic and pastoral support throughout their learning journey at CISM.

In the Elementary School, each child has their class teacher for most lessons. The class teachers know their children well, and establish a strong partnership with parents to support their child’s learning. In the Middle and High School, students have a Homeroom Tutor who they see each day. The Homeroom Tutor knows their students well and provides support and guidance throughout the year.

Our assembly program explores different themes including our IB Learner Profile and aspects of personal and social development and welfare. Further help and support  is available from our school counsellors and the school nurse.

Our Seniors are supported by our Careers and Guidance Specialist. We facilitate applications to universities and colleges around the world, helping our students make choices that allow them to achieve their ambitions and goals. We also help prepare students with life-skills needed to make a successful transition to their next steps in education, employment, or training.
