Each student at Branksome Hall has a guidance counsellor. In the Middle Division there is a specific Grade 7 counsellor for all students. Grade 8 and 9 students will have the same counsellor for both years. Starting in Grade 10, through to graduation, counsellors remain with their students.

Students acquire the knowledge and skills they need to set and pursue their educational and career goals with the support of their guidance counsellor. Each counsellor supports the academic, social, and emotional dimensions of a student’s life at Branksome Hall. Counsellors deliver a program through classroom instruction, the teacher-advisor program, completion of the annual educational plan, career exploration activities, individual assistance and short-term counselling. Concerns of a general academic, social or emotional nature should be directed to the student’s assigned guidance counsellor.
