Pastoral Care

To ensure the pasoral and wellbeing needs of each student are met, we have a strong pastoral system. The students have an assigned tutor(s) that support them with not only Attendance, Behaviour and Punctuality but also with UCAS applications, careers interviews, wellbeing as well as fostering good relationships with each student and their families.

The student’s tutors also deliver PSHEC lessons weekly as well Daily Tutor Time activities (DTT) that support their health, wellbeing and developing the personal skills needed for the wider world.

Our Sixth Form also has a non-teaching Head of Year that leads the Wellbeing aspect of the student’s school life and is available to support them throughout the day if needed. The Head of Year can be contacted on 6thform@stphils.org.uk and is based in the Sixth Form Office.
