Pastoral care is delivered through a House system. This is based on six Houses. The Houses are;
Cygnus |
Indus |
Lyra |
|
Orion |
Perseus |
Vela |
Each House is divided into House groups with each consisting of around 25 students. Each House group has a House Tutor and is a ‘family unit’ containing 4 or 5 students from each year group. The Houses and House Tutors are supported by 4 Assistant Principals and a Vice Principal who deal with specific pastoral problems. There is also further support from 6 Assistant Principals and 5 Vice Principals who promote and guide the individual Houses.
Although this is a large College, students are not anonymous but are individually supported. Parental partnership is of vital importance; we seek committed parents who are prepared to be fully supportive of the College ethos. Regular communication on progress using quantitative data is a strong feature.
All our students in Years 7 to 11 are expected to wear their College uniform with pride.
