Helping every child thrive
Our pupils are supported through their education because pastoral care is as important to us as results; our students do better because they feel better.
Pastoral care underpins all our work here at the High School. It means a huge amount that parents have chosen us for their sons and daughters, entrusting them to our care and professional expertise.
Our CLIMB pastoral programme provides expert pastoral care to help our pupils navigate all the bumps in the road and give every pupil a sense of belonging. It is our responsibility to prepare them for a rapidly changing world, and whatever path they choose, Shrewsbury High will walk it with them.
At Seniors, every student has a form tutor who is available to support and guide our pupils on a daily basis. Moreover, they are the first port of call for parents and carers, as they are the coaches, mentors and daily support for each and every student in their care.
Heading up each stage team is the Head of Stage, who steers the course and plans proactively for the needs of their cohort of students, tracking the academic and personal development of their pupils.

Our PSHE programme is designed to counter the specific pressures a 21st century girl faces, and we make sure she finds a strong voice through our student council, learning council and our digital leaders’ programme. Peer mentoring and support and our House system is at the heart of our ethos as a school community.
