Pastoral System

‘The WSO Way ensures all students, staff and parents are Ready, Respectful and Safe within the Academy.’

‘WSO’s GroWell programme empowers all stakeholders to lead positive, resilient and fulfilling lives, thriving in all areas of wellbeing’.

‘The GroWell curriculum is designed and based upon 5 key themes. Social and emotional learning is taught explicitly; Relationship Skills, Social Awareness, Self-Awareness, Self-Management and Responsible Decision Making. These themes are woven into curriculum delivery.’

‘Our dedicated, differentiated curricular programme serves to strengthen student emotional intelligence and mental resilience.   

GroWell serves to motivate, increase self-discipline and identify the steps required to reach goals identified by students themselves.’

‘Wellness rooms promote a culture of self-regulation and self-management'

‘A strong sense of belonging is embedded within our community at WSO through our House system and relationships created with tutors and class teachers.’
