Pastoral Support

Pastoral Support

Pastoral Care is something we pride ourselves on at St. Joseph’s.

Keeping in Touch

At the end of each cycle, parents and guardians will receive an information sheet, showing their child’s current attainment level in each subject and parents will also have the opportunity to attend a Parents’ Evening each year. We welcome all contact and information from parents and carers at any time of the year and this should be done by contacting the reception at: office@stjosephs.uk.net.

Behaviour Support Room

This established location in the school is designed to support students who are experiencing difficulties in mainstream class or who have had their school career interrupted for whatever reason.

The room supports:

• Students who need support and advice on how to cope in mainstream school.
• Students experiencing emotional difficulties.

The Behaviour Support Room offers:

• Respite from difficult situations in school.
• The chance to discuss difficulties and develop strategies to cope in mainstream school.
• Restorative support.

Bullying

We have developed a culture where pupils feel safe to report any instances of bullying behaviour whether they feel they are the victim or have witnessed it happening to another.  

Reporting bullying is essential – please be assured as Parents and Carers that we will support you and your child fully. If you think your child is being bullied:

• Please contact the school immediately and speak to the relevant Head of House.
• Ask your child directly if they are being bullied. Take bullying seriously. Please do not agree to keep bullying secret
