Pastoral & Progress Support & Making the Most of each year
When students start at Denbigh School in Year 7 they are placed in a Tutor Group with other students in Year 7 who are in their House. Students will stay in a Tutor group with other students in their year group from Year 7 to 11. Where possible, they remain with the same Tutor throughout this time. The Tutor will be the main contact for students and their families in-school and can most easily be contacted via email. Tutors see students every morning at 8:30am for Tutorial sessions.
Students have two Heads of Year, one to support them with their pastoral needs and another to support them with progress at school. Heads of Year can be found in the Student Support Centre. Heads of Years stay with their year groups as they move through the school.
We want all our students to make the most of each year they are with us. To help students we have an extensive support network focused on pastoral care, academic progress and House ethos. We give as much information as we can to students and parents throughout the year. At the start of the academic year we hold a ‘Making the Most of’ Evening for each year group with information for parents and students about how to make the most of the forthcoming year.
