Haileybury Almaty

We strive to provide excellent pastoral care at Haileybury Almaty. If children are happy and settled, they are more likely to work hard and achieve good results. Class teachers and form tutors keep a close watch on children’s progress inside and outside the classroom. We encourage parents to talk to them first if they have any concerns. In turn, class teachers and tutors will keep parents informed of achievements and discuss any issues. 

Every pupil at Haileybury Almaty is assigned to one of four ‘houses’. There are many house competitions and fortnightly assemblies. The house system helps children to meet others outside their year group. It is the context for healthy competion across a range of activities.  Each house is named after a famous former pupil of Haileybury.

Kipling

Bartle Frere

Edmonstone

Attlee

Housestaff: Ms B. Nedeva-Moore (Seniors) and Mr C Clarke (Juniors) Rudyard Kipling was a student at USC (United Services College). When the school merged in 1942 to become Haileybury & Imperial Service College, Kipling House opened as one of the boarding houses at the school and has now developed into the largest house at Haileybury in the UK.

Housestaff: Ms S Rhodes (Seniors) and Ms R Brant (Juniors) The House is named after The Right Honourable Sir Henry Bartle Frere, a former student of the East India College at Haileybury, who went on to become Governor of Bombay and later High Commissioner of British South Africa. Bartle Frere is a caring community with a recognisable sense of esprit de corps.

Housestaff: Ms N Gordon (Seniors) and Ms A. Harvey (Juniors) Edmonstone House in the UK dates back to 1863 when its first Housemaster was Rev H Couchman. Almost 150 years and 14 Housemasters later, the house remains a thriving boarding community and House spirit is as strong as ever.

Housestaff: Ms J Hall (Seniors) and Ms L Powell (Juniors) Clement Attlee was an Old Haileyburian and the Prime Minister of England from 1945 to 1951. Although Attlee House is not a house at Haileybury in the UK, it encourages the same high standards of achievement and behavior as the other houses.

Our reward system encourages children to work hard and make a full contribution to the community.  Yellow and Blue tickets are awarded to recognise achievement and significant service. 

Yellow Tickets are awarded to recognise improvement as well as achievement in academic work.  
Blue Tickets are awarded to recognise service to others, particularly when that service is beyond what would routinely be expected.

 The Headmaster will award book tokens to pupils who win significant numbers of Blue Tickets and Yellow Tickets.
