At Weston Green, we consider the pastoral needs of our pupils to be of the highest priority and we continuously review our pastoral provision to ensure that our pupils remain at the centre of everything we strive for.
The pastoral needs of our pupils are communicated via class teachers and teaching assistants, through to phase leaders and specialist staff as required. Our effective communication ensures that our pupils’ needs are met consistently and that they feel safe and supported at school.
Our pastoral provision is layered and multi-faceted to ensure that all children are seen and heard. Interventions are introduced as and when they are needed, whether that is short or long-term.
We use a number of tools to ensure that each pupil receives the pastoral support they need. These tools include 1:1 check-in sessions, assemblies, regular groups and workshops. We also use PASS data to monitor our pupil’s sense of self and, in 2026, launched our WG360 mentoring programme to further support each pupil’s understanding of themselves and their learning styles.
Pupil voice enables pupils to express opinions, showing respect for others and contributing responsibly to school life. It builds confidence, leadership and a strong sense of belonging. Pupil voice is prioritised through our school council, eco council, character champions and a cultural focus on pupil input.
The school has an ELSA and SENCO who work with class teachers, phase leaders and parents to help each pupil thrive at school. For more information on our SEN provision, please download our WG Guide to Pastoral Care.
