Ensuring that students are comfortable, secure and feel supported during their education makes a huge difference to the progress and achievement that individuals make. Our robust structure ensures appropriate support, information and guidance for all students, allowing them to focus on their learning.
Our Christian vision is inspired by the parable of the Good Samaritan and so we do not walk on by in times of need. We welcome student and parent contact and will contact home regularly to discuss welfare and progress.
