Our mission

The counselling department at Westminster Academy is much more than just career & academic counselling. For us, it’s about helping a child pave the way for their future. It’s about doing what needs to be done today, in order to achieve what we want tomorrow.

Our mission is to help our students thrive and is founded in having foresight and determination.

Committed to seeing our students excel in everything they do, we not only guide them with making the right academic choices, but also help them create an infrastructure for success in their studies and careers. Whether it’s applying to a dream university, or building a portfolio of activities and grades that reveal their true potential, the counselling department has always got you covered.

With a mission to help students realize their strengths and identify the areas which require further improvement, we work with our students in the following areas:

a. Guidance Counselling

b. Career Counselling

c. Subject Combinations

d. Portfolio Building

e. Internship Placements

f. Summer Programmes

g. University Applications

Counselling is the need of the present times when the student is exposed to too many career options and a flood of information. Students need a sense of direction and focus to channelize their energies productively. Timely guidance and counselling available to the students of Westminster is hence crucial to their success and satisfaction in their chosen careers.

Headed by the renowned Guidance Counsellor, Founder and Director of Westminster, Ms. Eyesha Raheel Khan, the counselling team at Westminster comprises of highly qualified and well-trained counsellors who work one-on-one with students to help them in the areas of academic achievement, career and social/emotional development, ensuring today’s students become productive, well-adjusted adults of tomorrow.
