Pastoral Care

At St. Joseph’s Primary School, pastoral care permeates all aspects of school life.

It reflects the values, attitudes, beliefs and practices of our Catholic faith and involves all members of our school community – board of governors, teachers, children, parents and all other adults who contribute to the well being of each child. We encourage pupils to discuss issues of concern to them through class Circle Time activities and also through our effective Kidscape programme. St. Joseph’s Primary school is a caring, responsible school with the children at the core of our activities. We strive to respond to the personal, emotional, social and educational needs of our pupils through our interaction with them in the classroom and beyond.

Our drugs education programme emphasises the dangers involved in the misuse of tobacco, alcohol and medicine. As our programme responds to need, we will include other substances when appropriate.

IN ALL CASES IT WILL BE THE SCHOOL POLICY TO ACT IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF THE CHILD”
