Pastoral Care and Wellbeing
At St John Fisher, we work hard to ensure that every member of our school community – pupils, parents, staff and visitors – feel safe and included. We are an inclusive school and every child, whatever their individual abilities or needs, is equally valued and welcome here.
We believe that good pastoral support focuses on nurturing the individual needs of each child. Everything we do is underpinned by a strong Catholic ethos. Driven by our values, we aim to provide every child with a genuine experience of what it means to belong to a Christian community, where our relationships are built on encouragement, concern, respect, forgiveness, and reconciliation.
The emotional health and well-being of all members of our school is fundamental to our philosophy and aims. Our policies and practices are founded in the development and sustenance of a happy, healthy school, where all learning can flourish.
Our aim is that children within our school will develop the self-esteem, awareness and self-confidence to play an active part in school life, the wider community and be fully equipped for the next stage in their educational journey.
Our Inclusion Team is made up of caring professionals who put students first in all they do. Together our team works with students so they can lead fulfilling and balanced lives at school and beyond. We fully believe in ‘Educating for Life’.
