Houses of Residence (Hostels)

Bishop Westcott Boys’ School’s boarding Section comprises of three Hostels (Dormitory style) catering to the three Sections of the school:

  • Junior Hostel: Classes I to V
  • Inters Hostel: Classes VI to VIII
  • Senior Hostel: Classes IX to XII

School dormitories play a crucial role in providing a conducive environment for learning, safety, and character development. Living in dormitories can help students become more independent and responsible. They learn how to manage their time, money, and resources effectively, which can be useful in their future life.

We teach valuable life skills that benefit students well beyond their academic years. Here’s how we help students develop resilience and life skills:

  • Time Management Skills
    Living away from home necessitates effective time management. We provide guidance to help students develop skills for effectively scheduling their studies, extracurricular activities, and personal time.
  • Independence and Self-reliance
    BWBS fosters a sense of independence and self-reliance in students. They learn to manage their belongings, take care of their personal needs, and advocate for themselves. These skills empower them to become selfsufficient and confident individuals.
  • Problem-Solving Skills
    Living in a community presents various challenges, and we encourage students to develop problem-solving skills. Through open communication and collaboration, students learn to navigate disagreements, resolve conflicts, and find solutions to everyday challenges .

A supportive and caring environment is crucial for students’ emotional well-being. Here are some ways we provide emotional support:

  • Caring and Fostering
    We have a team of well qualified hostel wardens who provide individual and group counseling sessions to students. Students can seek guidance on academic pressures, homesickness, social anxieties, or any other emotional concerns they may have.
  • Peer Support
    We foster a strong sense of community within our school, encouraging students to build supportive relationships with their peers. Senior students act as mentors to younger students, offering guidance, friendship, and a sense of belonging.
  • Partnership with Parents
    We believe that a strong partnership with parents is essential for student well-being. We keep parents informed about their child’s progress, address any concerns they may have, and work together to create a supportive environment for both the student at school and the family back home.
