Aims of the Academic and Pastoral Team
The purpose of the Academic & Pastoral Team is to streamline and improve communication between the school and the parent body, raising both academic and pastoral issues. It will also serve to develop better links with the parent body in order to assist students with opportunities both within and outside of the classroom, such as work placements and Careers Week.Coordinators

Heather S. and Sarah C. were elected and agreed to be the Secondary Coordinators.
