Student Health & Wellbeing

Student Support

We strongly believe in a personalised approach to student support in which many people play a role including;

  • Tutor who they see on a daily basis
  • Subject based mentoring
  • Head of Year
  • Sixth Form Learning Manager who is available throughout the day

Students can speak to Mrs Pass in the Sixth Form office should they have any issues and concerns.

There are also a large number of websites that provide help and support for specific health or wellbeing concerns.
