Menu Search PREP SCHOOL PREP SCHOOL LEARNING SUPPORT academic support to pupils with learning needs Learning Support Stover School is a non-selective school and welcomes pupils of all abilities. We recognise that some pupils may need particular support in order to make the most of the opportunities offered by the school because of difficulties with learning and/or disabilities. Learning Support can be provided in both the Preparatory School and the Senior School. Support is provided according to individual needs. Assessment is used to develop the programme of support needed as well as consultation with pupils, parents and staff. Many pupils benefit from having individual support lessons with a specialist teacher; in the Prep School this support will focus on gaining the necessary literacy and/or numeracy skills needed throughout a pupil’s education and in the Senior School this type of support is expanded to include help with the study skills necessary to access secondary education and beyond. Teaching assistants provide in-class support for pupils with a greater level of support need. Where necessary, support is provided for examinations e.g. extra time, scribes, readers etc. The Learning Support staff liaise closely with class, form and subject teachers in order to maximise the effectiveness of support.

Menu Search OUR SCHOOL SCHOOL HOUSES every pupil’s contribution is important and valued The House system is at the very centre of every pupil’s time at Stover. It nurtures students in a strong spirit of solidarity and loyalty and encourages all pupils to engage with those outside their year group through its vertical system; it gives pupils a sense of belonging regardless of age and ability and it enables pupils to make a contribution, no matter how small, to a greater whole. Through the House system pupils are actively encouraged to participate in a wide range of organised, keenly contested, inter-house activities. These activities range from music to football, from debating to netball and from house science to climbing. The full programme of events includes something for everyone and the award of an overall House Trophy ensures that every pupil’s contribution is important and valued. Pupils in different age groups are able to develop their leadership, motivational and organisational skills through their roles within the House as Heads of House and House Prefects. it enables pupils to make a contribution, no matter how small, to a greater whole.
