College tutors

Residential tutors

St. Ann's has ten residential tutors, each in charge of a corridor consisting of approximately 18 students. The tutors provide academic and social leadership, and pastoral care. They conduct academic monitoring of students in their corridor twice a year together with the Principal.

Each year a Senior Tutor is appointed - usually a tutor from the previous year who has re-applied for tutorship. They coordinate the Tutor group, and take a leadership role in the absence of the Principal. [St Ann's College tutor handbook]

Academic tutors

Each year senior students are selected into various academic positions for the purpose of tutoring lower year levels in any difficulty they are having [Labrador Amber, 14 years visionary perspective at St. Ann's College- 1990-2004 (2005) Brougham Press p.46] .
