Primary Pastoral Care

At Hutchesons' we aim to ensure that children feel safe and secure, to provide a relaxed, welcoming open-door policy for parents and to encourage them to express concerns at any time.

Buddies

P6 and P7 pupils look out for younger children during breaktimes.

Monitors

Upper primary children are allocated to infant classes.

Book Week

Older children visit the infant classes for paired reading and listening to and telling stories

Friendly advice

A House system

Each of the four houses has a sense of family and older children are encouraged to talk and play with younger ones during 'House Days' and at House assemblies.

Parents

For parents, the Primary School has an Open-Door policy, which encourages parents to raise concerns, however minor, with easy access to staff and the hope of a speedy resolution.
