Meet Our Prefect Team for 2024-25
Our new Head of School and Prefect team for 2024/25 has just been announced and we are delighted to introduce them to the school community.
Head of School for 2024-25: Toby McTurk
Toby joined the Prep School as a Y6 student in 2017, and has played a huge role in the College community ever since, from school productions to Model UN ambassador.
He has great plans for the year ahead: “During my time as Head of School, I hope to promote the House System, increasing the house spirit, making each and every pupil feel an important part of their academic House. In my opinion, Houses, and House Competitions, are an integral part of the Scarborough College community, and I hope that I can make this experience enjoyable for every student. I also hope to promote performing arts, and create more performance opportunities for students.
“There is a brilliant team of Deputy Heads of School, Senior Prefects, House Captains, Sports Captains, and Heads of Boarding working with me, and I strongly believe that we will work together to make Scarborough College life even more exciting for all!”
Deputy Heads of School – Hannah Smith, India Heron, and Kat Xenoudakis
Each of our deputies is responsible for a specific area of the school. Below is a quick introduction to the deputy team and their goals for this year.
Hannah: I have been at Scarborough College since year 7 and through this time the College has helped me develop massively. I feel very privileged to be in this role and to be given the opportunity to be a voice for my fellow students. Over this year I will be overseeing the arts with great help from our amazing senior prefects. I hope to inspire other students to embrace the creative arts as it can lead on to many unforgettable experiences. As a whole leadership team we will work together to make sure we maintain the family atmosphere which is so prominent within the College.
India: My motivation for leadership application stemmed from my goal to make our school something that every pupil is grateful and proud to have – Scarborough College has been an immeasurably important factor in my personal development and for that I will one day wear my alumni status with pride and gratitude. But for now, I am excited and enthused for the plans of both myself and the leadership team for the upcoming year. I am personally looking forward to my role in overseeing the pastoral side of the school along with a portion of our amazing prefects. Let’s have an amazing year!
Kat: I applied for a leadership role because I wanted to give back to a school that has given me so much through the opportunity to come to Scarborough from Surrey to improve my hockey and complete the IB. The amazing community and family atmosphere at Scarborough College is one that I have never experienced at my previous schools and as deputy head I will strive to ensure this continues. I am overseeing the academic senior prefect team and hope to introduce greater support between the upper end of the school and the lower end of the schools academics, to further build and improve on the already strong relationships between the whole schools community and year groups.
