| Students need to be happy if they are to become good learners and at the heart of our care for students is our relationship with the parent.
The College continues to develop effective systems to ensure the highest levels of safety and welfare of all students.
Students say we care about their well being and parents feel involved in supporting the progress of their child through effective structures that are in place for consultation from Year 5 onwards. This ensures that parents are continuously updated and informed about how they can support their child’s academic progress and personal development.
