Student Support Team

The Student Support Team (SST) provides a first point of call for parents and students. 

The SST is a well established team of non-teaching pastoral staff, who do not have the constraints of a teaching timetable and are therefore free to respond to parent and student queries throughout the day. They offer support around Special Educational Needs (SEND), Emotional and Mental Health and resolve issues such as bullying and behaviour.
