Student Support

Our Aim

At Beverley Grammar School we recognise that every student is different and in order for every child to reach their full potential we need to support them in varying ways to remove barriers to learning. We work very closely with the learning support department to achieve this.

Day-to-day contact and liaison with Heads of Year and other teaching staff, along with the team’s strong links with outside agencies, ensures that support is coordinated and that the individual needs of each student are addressed throughout their school life.

We operate an open-door policy for students looking for help and guidance on a wide range of issues and problems that might otherwise impact on their education and aspirations for the future. We believe we can make a difference.

Our Facilities

The Student Support team is located in one dedicated area of the school, which consists of 3 key areas; KS3, KS4 and a wellbeing area.

Each week the wellbeing area is used by our school nurse, school counsellors, the ELSA team and external agencies to meet and support students in our school.
