Wellbeing & Support

A Secure and Welcoming Community.

From a very early age we have specific assemblies aimed at making the children feel secure and welcome. These encompass all social, moral, spiritual and cultural aspects of school life and make children aware that it is safe to approach staff with any concerns that may arise.

The close-knit community we create is maintained throughout all of our schools, and pupils of all ages are encouraged to engage with their teachers on topics outside the curriculum to promote an atmosphere of trust between the pupils and staff.

Pastoral care takes many forms at Quinton House

Staff

Staff are passionate about developing students' academic progress and emotional well-being, and are committed to carefully monitoring the student's journey as they progress through the school.

We build and encourage close relationships with parents to collaborate at every step of the student's journey with us. This keeps the child at the centre of our collective decision making.

The tutor has a commitment to understanding the child's personal and academic position. This enables them to encourage and challenge the tutees to embrace the many opportunities that Quinton House provides across co-curricular, cultural activities and sport.

Parents

When a child joins Quinton House, the parents become part of the community. We develop a relationship based on honesty and trust, with the child at the heart of our conversations.

Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education

Find out more

Our carefully directed programme takes into account the increasing pressures on young adults, ensuring our students are well rounded, confident and compassionate individuals who are well equipped to deal with the competitive and challenging world.

Character Education

Character education focuses on the whole child.

It is about the acquisition and strengthening of virtues, the traits that sustain a well-rounded life and a thriving society.

We base our character education around four key aspects derived from the work of the Jubilee Centre for Character & Virtues from the University of Birmingham.

Four important aspects of character

  • The ability to remain motivated by long-term goals, linking effort in the present with pay-off in the longer term.

  • The learning and use of positive moral attributes, such as, courage, honesty, integrity, humility and a sense of justice.

  • The acquisition of social confidence and the ability to make arguments clearly and constructively.

  • An appreciation of the importance of long-term commitments.
