Episode four of Behind the Scenes at Bancroft’s continues our podcast series exploring the people, stories and experiences that shape life at the school.
Alistair shares his route into teaching and explains how Bancroft’s supports pupils through the transition into Year 7, with strong pastoral care and plenty of opportunities to settle in, make friends and build confidence.
He also reflects on the ‘BeingBancroft’s’ programme, the value of resilience, and how we encourage pupils to become well-rounded, curious and kind young people from day one.
