Pastoral Care
We have a community which recognises each individual as a unique part of God’s creation, nurtures in each a sense of dignity and self-worth, and fosters supportive and caring relationships.
We help our pupils to develop their God-given talents and potential and enable each to become a confident, responsible and useful member of society. The pastoral care system operates inside and outside the classroom to support both pupils and staff.
The aims of our pastoral care are many and varied and focus on the following:
- To give all pupils the experience of school as a well-ordered, caring Christian community where relationships are open and friendly, warm and supportive, so enabling pupils to develop their potential.
- To safeguard and promote the welfare, health and safety of pupils in school and in activities outside of school.
- To ensure that every individual is known and valued; that achievement, widely defined, is encouraged and rewarded as a means of promoting self-image and a sense of worth.
- To encourage self-discipline and good behaviour and to prevent poor discipline through vigilance, understanding and encouragement; to correct indiscipline with justice and compassion.
- To attempt to live by and promote the teaching of the Church, concerning faith and moral living through collective and individual prayer and worship, and the example of the whole school community.
