PASTORAL CARE

Student welfare is the priority for all staff. Class teachers look after the students in their class under the overall direction and help of the Director of Junior Section and the Assistant Head, Director of Pastoral Care and Wellbeing. The latter has responsibility for the pastoral system and the Head is kept fully informed at all times. A Pastoral Support Assistant supports the Director of Pastoral Care and Wellbeing and teachers to maximise student support and achievements across the spectrum of school life.

The Class Teacher is the central person in a student's school life. She/he monitors the progress of the students and guides them as they meet the challenges of the different years. Class teachers get to know their students very well and encourage their all round development. The Director will deal with any matter passed on by the Class Teacher.

We offer a pastoral event series for parents - Wakefield Girls' Matters. Events are usually offered online and outside of the school day so you can join us from wherever you are. You can watch all previous webinars in Firefly. They cover topics and issues that matter most to anyone successfully supporting and raising girls. It's another way we carry out our educational mission of preparing girls ready to succeed in life.
