Overview
There are three Deans working at Year 9 and two Deans at each other Year level. Two other Deans work with our International students. Deans have both an administrative and pastoral role within the College. Their administrative role includes putting students into classes, ensuring absences have been appropriately accounted for, taking a weekly assembly and assisting staff to enforce uniform and behavioural standards. Their pastoral role usually makes them the first point of contact for parents with worries or concerns about their child. They also try to encourage and acknowledge excellence amongst the students in their care, as well as working with students who are failing to meet either behavioural or academic goals. Students can also go and see them about any difficulties they are encountering. All Deans also have their own teaching responsibilities which means they are often not in their office and not instantly available to deal with parental requests. However, they attempt to return all voicemail contacts within 24 hours and are happy to make appointments to see parents when that is requested.
