Aunt Bea is the custodian of Dorley Hall and oversees the day-to-day operations of the programme.
Bea rarely has contact with boys in the programme, but performs weekly inspections of second-year girls and monthly inspections of third-year girls. Much of the strict, humorless personality Bea shows them is an act she puts on as part of her role; sponsors and other graduates see more of her true personality. She is nevertheless capable of shocking ruthlessness when the situation calls for it.

In Grandmother's Dorley
This section is incomplete. You can help by expanding it.
Although technically sponsored by Frankie, sponsors in old Dorley played a more adversarial role than they do in the modern programme. Bea formed a relationship with a more experienced Dorley girl, Valérie, who both played the role of a modern sponsor—encouraging and supporting her in developing a genuine female identity—and also became romantically involved with her.
