More House School

Boarding Staff

“Staff live and breathe the ethos of the setting

and are highly invested in the progress of the pupils.”

Ofsted, 2024

 

We are very proud of our boarding staff! They are dedicated in both senses of the word; dedicated in that they are first and foremost boarding staff who don't have teaching roles and can therefore put their energies into boarding time at both ends of the school day and dedicated in that they are dynamic, creative, energetic, patient, caring and intuitive.

Our staff are all graduates and many are taking on their first steps towards a career in education or a related profession. Whilst their youthful dynamism is perfect for our boarders, we also have those who can draw on many years of experience working in other boarding schools, as well as More House.  Each member of staff will generally work with a year group of boarders for at least two years, often more, and this consistency is so important to our boys and parents. 

 

Ms Alexandra Rositano | Head of Residential; Deputy Head
 

Ms Rositano joined More House in September 2022 after eight years at a state Boarding school just down the road in Surrey, where she held positions as a Head of Boarding House, School Counsellor and Foundationer Welfare Coordinator. Prior to this she worked at a Catholic Boarding School in Australia for seven years. She holds degrees in both Psychology and International Studies as well as a qualification in secondary teaching.

When Miss Rositano is not working she can be found reading or walking her pug, Lola.

Mr Luke Webb | Deputy Head of Boarding; Houseparent - Y11, Duke of Edinburgh's Award Coordinator; Teacher of Physical Education (part-time)
 

Mr Webb is Deputy Head of Boarding at More House and has a connection to the school stretching from his time here as a pupil, until 1996. A staff member since 2005, Luke is vastly experienced in his support of boarders and currently works with the Year 11s in St. Anthony’s boarding house. He is the ‘go-to’ person for organising evening excursions and generally everything else that makes boarding tick!

His expertise is in outdoor pursuits and his boarding role is supplemented by his work as whole-school coordinator of the Duke of Edinburgh's Award scheme, Teacher of PE and, of course, the school's annual ski-trip.
 

Miss Sarah Roberts | Senior Houseparent / Year 6 & 7 

Miss Roberts has been houseparent in the Main House junior corridor since September 2015, taking on the additional responsibility role of Senior Houseparent from September 2021. Her specialist support of the boarders in Years 6 and 7 has seen many creative and active initiatives which have stretched her boarders' imaginations, promoted self-organisation and kept them active. 

Miss Roberts is an avid reader and also enjoys trips  home to spend time with her family. She is our resident 'gaming' expert, understanding the boys' gaming vernacular where others do not!   
 
She is interested in developing more expertise in special needs, and particularly in assistive technology,  ie looking at how recent developments might be used to help those with SEN.

Miss Dominique Mooney | Houseparent - Year 8 

Miss Mooney joined More House in the Trinity term of 2022 having completed her degree in Therapeutic Communication and Counselling Skills back home in Northern Ireland. She currently works with the Year 8 boarders in Main House. 

Miss Mooney enjoys listening to and reading books in her free time.  She still boasts a very strong  Irish accent so don't be afraid to ask her to repeat or explain what she has said! Miss Mooney really enjoys exploring natural beauty sites and you can often find her utilising her National Trust membership. However, her  favourite place is Bournemouth beach. 

Mr Bone-Knell | Houseparent - Year 9 

Mr Bone-Knell joined More House in the Michaelmas term of 2023, having previously worked for four years in a boarding house in Norfolk. He currently works with the Year 9 boarders.

Mr Bone-Knell enjoys reading and writing, aspiring to publish his novel and children's book. Accompanying him is Winter, his Springer Spaniel pooch who is eager and excited all the time, raring for the chance to sprint and run around to meet everyone. 

Mr Matthews | Houseparent - Year 10 

A More House School old boy, Mr Matthews joined the boarding team in January 2024. He currently works with the Year 10 boarders in St Anthony's Boarding House.

Mr Barlow | Houseparent - Sixth Form 

Mr Barlow joined More House in Sept 2023 and is currently Houseparent to the Sixth Form boys. He also graduated in 2023 with a BSc (Hons) in Sport Development and Coaching Sciences from Bournemouth University. 

Holding a UEFA C Licence, he has extensive experience coaching football, having previously coached in the USA and in the girls talent pathway at Sheffield United. Before joining More House he worked in a co-ed day and boarding school in Derbyshire as a sports coach and assisting in boarding. 

Sports are his main interest, and he is a keen follower of Rugby, Formula 1 and MMA. He has recently started learning golf and tennis. By his own admission he is a casual gamer, enjoying playing Xbox and some games on his PC, as well as watching movies and series in his free time. In the future he hopes to see more of the world, read more books, learn to swim and make his Yorkshire accent and awful humour easier to understand for the boys!

Miss Abbi Daniell | Houseparent - Sixth Form 

Miss Daniell joined More House at Easter 2025. She currently works with the Sixth Form Boarders in St Anthony's Boarding House.
