Tutors receive ongoing support from the guidance department, with regular family contact and the use of ISAMS and the Mestral school app to deliver personalised attention and identify, assess, and prevent learning difficulties from day one.

Mestral offers two types of scholarships based on academic excellence and outstanding results for students who have completed ESO: Excellence Scholarships for Internal Students and Excellence & Social Scholarships for External Students. Internal Scholarships provide exemption from monthly school fees for the award year. Selection for internal scholarships is based on academic criteria, with the first-year baccalaureate scholarship using weighted ESO averages and the second-year scholarship using the first-year of the baccalaureate grades; the required average is above 9, with ties distributed equally. The deadline is July 5th of the previous academic year. External Scholarships (Social & Excellence) consider academic performance and socio-economic criteria; there are two awards each year, one in the first year of the Baccalaureate and one in the second year; recipients are exempt from monthly fees for the year in which the scholarship applies. Selection factors include ESO averages, socio-economic documentation, and a personal interview. Applications for external scholarships require a certificate of the applicant's average from the previous school and socio-economic documentation by July 5th of the same year; for the second-year scholarship, the student must remain at Mestral; the director may revoke the scholarship for significant academic decline or disciplinary issues.
