At Rydes Hill, outstanding pastoral care is central to everything we do. We understand how crucial it is to continually support the wellbeing of our children and staff so they can thrive. We are proud to have built a culture of support, inclusion and kindness. In addition to our interactive and comprehensive life skills sessions, we have additional initiatives to support children who are finding things tough.
Emotional literacy support
If we feel that a pupil would benefit from emotional literacy support we will inform their parents that we would like to invite them to come for some sessions. Parents may also speak to their class teacher or a member of the senior leadership team if they would like their child to be considered. Sessions are complimentary and run 1:1.

Special educational needs
If a pupil has additional needs in supporting their academic progress, we can offer individual or group teaching assistant support for an extra fee. If we suspect that your child would benefit from extra support or has additional needs, we will speak to you at the earliest opportunity to discuss options. If you have concerns about your child, please speak to their class teacher in the first instance. If required, your child’s class teacher will arrange a conversation with our SENCO.
