Pastoral Care

Pastoral Care is at the centre of our school ethos. It gives us great pride to nurture and support our students, to ensure their personal, emotional and intellectual development and well-being.

We have a KS3 Pastoral Manager, Mr King and KS4 Pastoral Manager, Mrs C O’Neill. Each Year Group is led by a Pastoral Leader, while each Form Class is supported by a Form Teacher. We recognise the importance of peer support and so we have a Student Voice cohort managed by Miss S Morgan.

Our role is to create a school community where each individual is nurtured and cared for, where the student voice is valued, where parents are embraced as partners and where the academic, emotional, cultural and social well-being of our youth is of paramount concern. Our aim is to care for the whole child. We are not just focused on academic outcomes, but on ensuring that our students are happy, celebrated, encouraged and inspired. Our Mentoring Programme encourages students to Develop an understanding and awareness of wellbeing, Ensuring a smooth transition into the school and between sections for students, Promoting emotional intelligence, resilience, and self-awareness. We recognise that students have a right to feel safe and secure; therefore Child Protection is at the heart of our work.
