Congratulations to the newly elected 2025 Uplands College Mentors

By 23 August 2024No Comments

The 2025 Uplands College mentor election process was recently undertaken, with results announced last week.

Uplands offers a holistic experience which is structured to provide young people with every opportunity to enter the world. Leadership is a core value that is critical in the journey and during an in-depth election process, nine Grade 11s were selected to lead the school as school mentors, and fifteen were selected as the boarding mentors within the four boarding houses: Bishop, College, Founders and Goss. During the Election Process, all Grade 11s are invited to apply. The Grade 11s and College staff nominate a shortlist, after which a final round of voting by the whole of the College takes place.

“The position of Mentor is the highest honour/position a school pupil can aspire to. It is a recognition of the esteem in which they are held by staff and pupils and the potential they hold for real leadership in the school.” – Mr Allan Laing, Head of Uplands College.
