Student Wellbeing


Adolescents place great emphasis on their interactions and relationships with peers. If you find your child/children are in need of additional guidance, a link has been placed on both the parent and student portal titled, Wellbeing Support links which may be of assistance to you. The Pastoral Care Team will also be in contact with students on a regular basis.
