Care and Wellbeing

At St Gregory’s we are dedicated to supporting the care and wellbeing of every student. Our holistic approach ensures that we nurture the whole person—academically, spiritually, and personally—creating a safe and supportive environment where students can thrive. We recognise that success in school is not just about grades, but also about emotional wellbeing, personal growth, and feeling valued within a community.

This page introduces our key staff members who are here to support you and your child throughout their journey with us. Our team is committed to helping students navigate any challenges they may face, offering guidance and assistance tailored to their individual needs.

We also provide resources for parents and carers, offering practical advice on how to support your child’s wellbeing both at school and at home. You will also find vital safeguarding information to ensure that every student is protected and feels safe at all times.

Below is a list of key staff here to support student care and wellbeing and links to pages with more information.
