“A warm and welcoming environment that makes for grounded girls who want to achieve.” – The Good Schools Guide

At Tormead, we fundamentally believe that pupils can only be successful when they are happy. That’s why pastoral care is the cornerstone of our provision as we strive to ensure that each and every pupil is supported to feel fulfilled, safe and secure within our community.

Our approach to pastoral care focuses upon strong and positive relationships between pupils and staff as well as an open partnership with parents. The relatively small size of our school also makes a difference: each girl is visible and well-known as the individual she is. Through proactive Form Tutors and a dedicated Head of Year, your daughter will be familiar to those who support her best, and the support available will be visible and familiar to her.

Tormead School is committed to providing a safe and secure environment for all its pupils and promoting a climate where all pupils feel safe and confident about sharing any concerns which they may have about their own safety or the well-being of others.

The Governing Body facilitates a whole school approach to safeguarding ensuring that safeguarding and child protection are at the forefront and that they underpin all relevant aspects of process and policy development which operate with the best interests of the child at heart.

The Designated Safeguarding Lead is Miss Hannah Andrews and she is supported by the Deputy Head (Pastoral) and a team of Deputy Designated Safeguarding Leads,  Heads of Years and specific support staff. If you have any concerns about your child or about another child who attends Tormead School, please contact the designated safeguarding team via the School Office.
