At Tenby Schools Penang we ensure every student feels supported, valued, and safe throughout their school journey. Wellbeing and pastoral care are central to our philosophy, promoting mental fitness, emotional health and personal development. By creating an environment of care and encouragement, learners grow the confidence they need to achieve their full potential.
From their first day, every learner becomes part of one of four Houses: Ledang, Kinabalu, Jerai, or Tahan. Each House is guided by dedicated House Leaders and Tutors who focus on wellbeing and celebrate achievements. This system fosters a sense of belonging and offers opportunities for learners to grow into leadership roles. Friendships flourish through classes, playground activities, and sports, creating a vibrant and supportive school community.
Learners begin and end their day with their class teacher or tutor, offering consistent touchpoints to track progress and prepare for the day. These sessions provide stability, connection, and a safe space for encouragement and guidance, ensuring every student feels grounded and supported.
