Student Support
The pastoral care of our students is a responsibility we take very seriously. We place great store on creating and maintaining the right relationships between students, staff and parents. In order to ensure that all students learn and work in an environment of safety and respect, we have established our “Poynton High Expectations”. This details our expectations and consistent approach to ensuring all students make positive behaviour choices, both in and outside of the classroom. A summary of our expectations can be found by clicking the following link: POYNTON HIGH EXPECTATIONS
