Pupils learn about the importance of achieving a balance between study and leisure activity. - Ofsted 2021
During their time at Denmark Road, your child will make the transition from childhood to adulthood. Wit the right provision and the right support, and working in partnership with parents, students and wider services (as appropriate to need), we aim to enable our young people to understand and care for themselves and others.
Our people matter. We are committed to two priorities:
Looking after our wellbeing.
Being a successful learner.
Every student has a Form Tutor that mentors them throughout the year.
These sessions are done formally once or twice a term as well informally most days, with the view to supporting them to reach their full potential – both academically and socially.
Parents/carers receive updates on how their daughters are performing in their individual subjects most terms, as well as a Tutor Report during the course of the year.
Students may periodically display emotional, social or mild behaviour difficulties as a result of a change in their life.
Tutors, Heads of Year and the Student Support team are all here to listen, support and give advice. We are in contact with parents/carers and all the outside agencies to gather expertise and find the best solution for that student.
The Heads of Year and tutor team lead a full programme for the tutorial sections of the curriculum.
This programme includes PSHE and Citizenship, Careers and a whole range of appropriate age-related topics. Often outside speakers join the students to add reality and expertise to the discussion.
