There is a range of people your child can go to, whatever their worry.
A great deal of emphasis is placed on pastoral care at Leweston. We are entirely committed to providing an environment that inspires warmth, confidence, creativity and personal development in all our pupils, whether they attend Leweston as a day pupil or boarder.
The first point of contact for pupils is usually their Form Tutor. These members of staff see pupils every day and have a role in monitoring their academic progress as well their personal well-being. Tutors are supported by a wider pastoral team which includes Heads of Year, the Director of Boarding, House Parents, the Health Centre nurses, the Chaplaincy Co-ordinator, the School Counsellor and the Deputy Head Pastoral.
Leweston has also created the new position of Pastoral Lead. Robyn Hintze has joined in this full-time, non-teaching position to provide pupils with someone who can support them with issues such as resilience, pastoral concerns, friendship issues and emotional development. Robin also runs pastoral seminars for parents on topics which range from supporting an anxious teen, to coping with exams and getting enough sleep.
