Student Support

Year 7 Form Tutors
Students are primarily supported by their form tutors. Form tutors are the first contact point for parents, unless reporting an absence. Students will be in one of seven tutor groups and you will be notified of which one prior to starting. Each tutor group is made up of around 30 students from a variety of feeder schools. This is a really exciting opportunity to make new friends and get to know new people. Tutor groups are led by a form tutor. Students see their tutors in the morning for registration at 8.30am.

Year Lead
The Year Lead for the 2026 cohort will be announced in the summer term. They will lead assemblies and visit tutor groups. They will be supported by a Year Manager. The Pastoral Manager is a non-teaching member of staff who is also a valuable support mechanism and will help support on pastoral issues.

Assistant Head (over-seeing Year 7)
One of the members of the Senior Leadership Team also takes responsibility for overseeing Year 7 and monitoring their transition. Mr Wait currently fulfils this role.
