Wellbeing and inclusivity

Our guiding values

Learners use shared values to guide relationships, choices and behaviour, building respect, responsibility and a strong sense of belonging.

Support for every student

Students experience caring relationships, clear expectations and tailored support that help them feel safe, included and ready to learn each day.

Pastoral care

Students build a strong relationship with a dedicated tutor who stays with them over time. In regular check‑ins, students talk about how they feel, share worries, celebrate wins and set new goals.

During tutor time, students reflect on their week, plan next steps and decide where they want extra support. When they need more help, students join conversations with pastoral staff and specialist teams and help shape a support plan that works for them and their families.

Pastoral care

Positive choices and Golden Time

Students use Golden Time to connect their everyday choices with positive outcomes. Throughout the week, they choose to follow the Golden Rules, show kindness and take responsibility for their learning, and they earn Golden Time as a result.

When they break a rule, students pause, talk through what happened and decide how to put things right. They treat mistakes as chances to grow, set new goals for the next day and see how better choices rebuild trust and open up more Golden Time.

Positive choices and Golden Time

Personal Social and Health Education

Students take part in Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE) across lessons, tutor time and school life.

In Grades 6 and 7 they explore the transition to adolescence and rehearse choices about health, friendships, digital life and personal safety. 

In Upper School, students deepen these themes in tutoring periods, while teachers, pastoral staff and specialists work together so every learner knows who to ask for support.

Personal Social and Health Education

Healthy habits

Students build healthy habits through simple daily routines that keep school calm and ready for learning. Students organise materials, manage time, move safely around campus and look after their own hygiene and shared spaces.

When something slips, students pause, notice what went wrong and try new strategies with support from adults. Step by step, students strengthen self‑management and resilience and see how their everyday choices shape their wellbeing.

Healthy habits

Conflict resolution and feeling safe

Students take an active role in resolving conflicts and building a safe classroom climate. When disagreements happen, tutors and class representatives stand beside them as they listen to each other, share feelings with care, consider other perspectives and look for solutions that feel fair to everyone.

When a situation feels more complex, students ask for extra help. Pastoral staff, psychologists and families join the conversation, agree clear next steps and check in regularly so students feel safe, heard and supported at every stage.
