Inclusion

Pastoral Care

We understand that every student is different. They learn in different ways and have different interests and areas of strength. Individual students also have different needs at different times. Our pastoral care strategy will be designed and geared up to help each student discover where their particular talents lie and will offer tailored support when they need it.

We have a highly personalised approach to meeting the academic, physical, emotional and spiritual needs of every student. We will use information and data from our own assessments, from national tests and from our meetings with students and their parents to make sure we know our students well and understand their individual needs.

A combination of outstanding learning and teaching, wide-ranging enrichment activities, regular opportunities for emotional and spiritual development and an extensive programme of challenge and support will enable us to maximise every student’s chance of success.

Year Team System

Every student will be assigned to a tutor group led by a Personal Tutor (PT). The Personal Tutor will be the first point of contact between home and school. They will make sure parents are regularly updated on any issues that are preventing their son from learning. They will take particular care during the transition from secondary school to the sixth form. The PTs will run a detailed tutorial programme that is designed to help the young men to focus on their learning and university preparation.

The Head of TB6 will monitor students’ progress throughout the year using a range of assessment strategies in order to accurately estimate the grades they  are likely to achieve at the end of the year and provide additional support to ensure each student achieve their potential.

Formal progress monitoring will occur each half- term. During progress monitoring, students’ will have an individual interview with each of their Subject Teachers. Their progress to date will be discussed with them and they will receive feedback on a range of areas from all their subjects. After this, the young men will have a detailed one-to-one interview with the Head of Sixth Form.

The Year Team is responsible for ensuring the well-being of students. It comprises of the PTs for each year group, PPTs for each year group, a dedicated Head of Year, the Head of TB6 and the SLT Link to the Sixth Form.

Extra support

For students with additional needs, those going through some sort of distress (eg after a bereavement) or those where there are attendance or behaviour issues, the school will provide intensive support to make sure they get the help and support they need to succeed in their learning.

We will also have a multi-agency team that will support the school in delivering the Every Child Matters and Extended Services agenda. Students have access to a school nurse, educational psychologist, social worker and other professionals.

The Tarbiyyah (nurturing) mentoring programme provides specialised, individual spiritual guidance for any young man in need.

Rewards and sanctions

Every student will special and the sixth form regularly identifies, rewards and celebrates its students’ successes. These can be in any aspect of school life and will include rewards for regular attendance, outstanding academic achievement, making a good contribution to the local community or an act of kindness.

Rewards will take many forms, ranging from simply saying “well done” to recognition at celebration assemblies or special events such as the annual presentation evening.

If standards at TB6 are to be maintained, it is equally important to have a clear, consistent sanctions system. This will rigorously enforced by an explicit system of detention and report cards.

Partnership with parents

Our partnership approach to working with parents will play a big part in our success.

Our commitment to pastoral care and to ensuring that every student gets personal attention means that parents will mean that their sons will flourish in our safe and secure learning environment.

All parents and guardians will are asked to sign a home–school agreement, which will clearly states our commitment to their son, as well as what we expect in return, in terms of attendance and behaviour.

All parents and guardians will  regularly be kept up to date with their son’s academic and spiritual progress, through both our half-termly report cards and performance review meetings.

This process will ensure that parents know where their son is up to, what they have achieved and any areas that need further attention. It will be an opportunity for parents to give feedback to us and tell us what they’d like to see in the early stages of TB6.
