| Pastoral Care |
 Girls are learning all the time, not just through their academic subjects but also in the way that they communicate with others and the way that they conduct themselves within the wider community.Pastoral care of the girls at Bramley School is paramount. Class teachers and form teachers are responsible for the care and happiness of each child and an ‘Open Door’ policy exists which allows every girl immediate access to a teacher should a problem arise. Assemblies are an important part of the school day, when the staff and children come together to reflect on Christian values and provide an opportunity for children to worship God. Whilst the majority of acts of worship in our school are Christian, we also hold assemblies that reflect other religions represented in the School and the wider community. Assemblies take on a weekly theme, such as how to listen to other people and how to contribute to the community, and the theme is usually brought to a conclusion by a class assembly on Friday. A whole school assembly is taken once a month by the Rector from St Peter's Church, Walton-on-the-Hill. Curriculum time is dedicated to Personal, Social, Health Education and Citizenship allowing further reflection time and this, combined with the assemblies, allows girls to develop socially, morally and ethically. The ‘Open Door’ policy also allows parents easy access to members of staff and parents are actively encouraged to participate in all aspects of school life. Our Head of Pastoral Care and Deputy Child Protection Officer is Mrs J Hamilton who's also part of the Senior Management Team. The Headteacher is the Child Protection Officer. |
