Pastoral Annual Plan
Our Academy Day includes a 25 minute planned tutorial session every day. The purpose of this session is to prepare students for their life both inside and outside of the Academy, as well as sharing important information and having progress discussions with their tutor. The weekly programme is structured as follows:
Key Stage 3
- Day One – Data, Planners and important announcements and RE

- Day Four – Pastoral Activity
Key Stage 4
- Day One – Data, Planners, important announcements and RE

Each year group also has a timetabled assembly, with themes including future aspirations, our shared values, wellbeing and current affairs.
Each half term has a theme, around which assemblies and activities are loosely based.
- Autumn One – Resilience
- Autumn Two – Respect
- Spring One – Kindness
- Spring Two – Diversity
- Summer One – Relationships
- Summer Two – Aspirations
In addition, there are half-termly Wellbeing Weeks, where students will take part in activities themed around positive mental health, relaxation, team building and positivity. This includes interactive assemblies, form challenges, mindfulness and physical activities.
