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.
