Care and Support

We are here to help you as you make the transition into Sixth Form life, and have a dedicated team of staff to support you throughout your studies. 

Through tailored pastoral and wellbeing support, we ensure Sixth Form students reach their full potential. We understand and care about students' needs and will encourage you to believe in yourself and have the highest possible aspirations. 

This includes a focus on getting the best from the courses you have chosen, being there for you in times of challenge, as well as nurturing your wider talents and co-curricular interests. 

There will also be an emphasis on preparing you for your next steps - be that university, higher level apprenticeships or employment.

Rest assured that at Houlton you will be part of a welcoming family, here for you throughout your time with us and beyond. 

...pupils rise to the challenges set by the school. They work hard, adhere to the rules and routines and contribute to school life.
