Guidelines
- Pastoral care is the major responsibility of the form tutor Head of Departments, Deputy Headteachers (Form Tutor, HOD and Headteacher’s).
- HOD/Form tutors work as a team under the direct guidance of the Deputy Head / Headteacher.
- It is the School\’s policy to liaise closely with parents on matters of pastoral care. This liaison is the responsibility of the HOD working with the Deputy head / Headteacher.
- The organisation of the curriculum reflects the pastoral needs of the pupils in our care.
