Pastoral care is paramount. Ours is a three-way partnership with parents and girls to provide guidance and care daily.  Parents and girls are always welcome to raise questions, queries and problems.  We aim to deal quickly and respond sensitively to the girls’ needs.

Each girl has a Form Tutor - an academic member of staff responsible for her care and welfare.  Tutors listen to each girl and try to resolve any issues that arise.  Girls in Years 7 to 9 will have a different tutor each year but girls in Years 10 and 11 (the GCSE years) and in Years 12 and 13 (the A Level years) keep the same tutor for two years.

Form Tutors get to know girls very well. They see them every morning for registration and form time/assembly and every afternoon, so they are always alert to their different needs and personalities.
