Pastoral care is the responsibility of every member of staff at Padgate Academy. We all feel privileged to play a key role in developing the emotional and academic intelligence of our young people.
As you would expect from a school that is judged to have good pastoral care, one of the key characteristics of our Pastoral Leadership Team is that we constantly strive to improve our provision for our students.
We keep pace with current research into student welfare and encourage dialogue with students and parents to identify and respond to their evolving needs.
Our Pastoral Leaders, which you may know as Heads of Year, have overall responsibility for a year group. They are responsible for behaviour, attendance, safeguarding and other issues which arise during the school day. Our Pastoral Leaders are also often be the first point of contact for parents and social services in safeguarding matters.
