Patchell's

Ever since taking over Patchell's, my wife and I have been hugely impressed with the close knit community that is evident within the House. It is obvious that the House has an understanding of certain core values; kindness and good manners, tolerance of each other, respect for the environment, support for House plays, music, and sport, and a willingness from the pupils to do their best. These are traits that Rebecca and I are keen to develop and maintain, alongside creating an environment within the House where pupils can live together, whatever their interests, nationality or outlook on School life. We feel that it is particularly important to create an atmosphere in which all can feel at ease whilst being encouraged to seek improvement.

Patchell's HM, Glenalmond College

We moved to 'Coll' from Blundell's School in Devon and have been struck by the warmth of what is obviously a special community. I teach Physical Education at Glenalmond, coach the 1^st XV and head up the Athlete Development Programme for those with Outstanding sporting ability. Rebecca (a primary school teacher) and I have two boys; Iwan, nine, and Rhys, six, who both thoroughly enjoy playing a part in Patchell's.

We are very fortunate to be involved in a House which is full of identity, spirit and talent. Patchell's is a thriving community with an experienced team of tutors who play an active and committed role in the day to day life of the pupils. We hope that you enjoy keeping up to date with all that goes on in a busy boarding house through the Patchell's News web page - click here .
