The Role of the Pastoral Tutor

The role of the Tutor at the Senior School

Small tutor groups are a major strength of this school. Form Tutors get to know their tutees really well and notice quickly any unusual behaviour or changes in standards of work from anyone in their charge.

They help ensure that emotional difficulties that might remain hidden in a bigger organisation can come to our notice and be resolved.

The Form Tutor is the first person who can help a pupil overcome any minor difficulty. If the problem is persistent, or of a more serious nature, the Head of Year will become involved.

The Head of Year supervises, oversees and co-ordinates the tutors in their year. They will be a tutor themselves but they will need to know the other pupils in the year group and try to foster a spirit of mutual support and teamwork amongst them.

High standards of behaviour are expected and the conduct of the pupils at LOGS is generally very good. We expect our pupils to be respectful and polite and they can be trusted to look after the buildings, the resources and each other.

They live up to the school's code of conduct and understand the anti-bullying policy and the protection which it affords.
