Pastoral Care - Year 7
Message from the Head of Year: Miss STURMAN
Hello, I am Miss Sturman, the year 7 Learning Community Team Leader. I am really pleased to say that the year group have settled well and have made an excellent start to their time at Robert Clack.
The transition from primary school to secondary school is a challenging step to take and I am delighted with the way that the pupils have risen to the challenge. They have been exceptionally mature and adjusted well to their new surroundings. I am also very grateful to the parents and guardians who have equipped the children with the necessary uniform and stationary which has made the move very smooth.
The teachers at Robert Clack work really hard to ensure that there are numerous extra-curricular activities open to pupils and pupils will have the opportunity to attend clubs such as photography club, foreign film club, basketball club, dance club and rugby club to name just a few. I do hope that pupils will be encouraged to join these clubs as they are such an important part of their time at school.
With such varied activities and outstanding teaching and learning I believe that your child can not fail to flourish and develop as a rounded and happy individual.
I greatly look forward to meeting you all throughout the course of the academic year.

Care, guidance and support are outstanding. Students are positive about the effective pastoral system that contributes to the 'family-like' community in the school. Students feel safe in school, supported by the high levels of supervision throughout the day. There are outstanding links with local authority and other external agencies so that vulnerable students including looked after children are well cared for. Careers advice and support are excellent and ensure that students are well informed about the options available to them for the next stage of education and working life. Systematic whole-school procedures rigorously check on students' academic progress. Day-to-day guidance to students on how to improve their performance is very effective.
