Pastoral Care at Severn Vale School

The Pastoral System

Every student has a tutor who will usually follow their group through until the end of their time at school.  Tutors work in a team under the direction of a non-teaching Head of Year (HOY) who will also remain with the year group throughout their five years.

Your child's tutor will be your first point of contact for most basic queries you may have.
