The pastoral care at The Wellington Academy is driven by a student-centred approach through pivoting and adapting to meet the needs of the students day-to-day. In maintaining and monitoring systems at the Academy, the role of the tutor is key; tutors are the first point of contact for parents and students and will be able to identify issues before other members of staff. It is the job of the tutor to get students ready to learn in the morning and ensure that they have everything they need and logging accordingly on their conduct cards and Arbor house points. Punctuality and attendance are vital to students’ success. Tutors are also expected to check students’ phone pouches every morning and their uniform. The pastoral team work to ensure that staff, students, and families are supported. Interventions, support plans and additional academic and pastoral strategies may also be implemented to support the behaviour/pastoral needs of the student. Each year group has a non-teaching year group leader with a Head of Key Stage overseeing them and working with the tutors to lead the year group and set high expectations for attainment, progress and conduct. All of the above is overseen by the AHT for Behaviour & Culture.
