Caring for our pupils
Each student becomes a member of a tutor group of about 25 students and is looked after by their form tutor. This tutor sees the students at the start of the day and at the beginning of the afternoon session, helps them with any problems that occur and monitors their progress through the school. The overall responsibility for your child’s year will be with a progress manager. Where possible, we seek to maintain the same form tutors and progress manager throughout the five years your child is with us. Home and school communication is very important and parents are asked to keep form tutors informed of important issues affecting their child. We ask all parents to phone the school on the morning of the first day of any absence that your child may have due to ill health. We need to be assured that your child is safe at home, if they are not in school. If you do not contact us, we will contact you, at home or at work, to confirm the whereabouts of your child. Clearly it is much easier if you let us know in the first instance. If you do have anything that you think we should be aware of, please do not hesitate to get in touch with your child’s Form Tutor or Progress Manager.
The overall well-being of an individual child or whole group of children is always at the centre of what we do. The key is communication between parents and staff.
