Our academic mentoring programmes have made a strong return this half term, with over 100 pupils currently taking part in a Mathematics Mentoring initiative. Through the programme, Lower School pupils are paired with a Sixth Form student studying A Level Mathematics, and they meet on a Friday morning at tutor time for support with their GCSE studies.

We are grateful to all our Sixth Form mentors for embodying true Richian values and supporting others; we know from previous years that Lower School pupils have benefited hugely from older students' guidance and generosity.
