The Pastoral Support Team are members of the care team who support our young people in around the school throughout the day. The aim of the team is to keep our students safe at all times, ease periods of disruption and promote good behaviour around the school.

The PST have radio support and the use of Pastoral Support rooms, including sensory rooms, which all young learners have access to if they find ever find themselves in a situation or class too challenging and need some space or support.

The Pastoral Support Team very much operate around the founding principles of Team Teach. De-escalation of difficult situations is 95% of what we do. Wherever possible, choices are offered, changes of face introduced and open spaces provided. The PST team have built strong relationships with our young people and are often student’s residential Key Workers. Staff work together to offer specialist knowledge and support.
