St. Andrews Green Valley supports students’ social and emotional development through dedicated programmes and structured activities. Weekly tutor periods and PSHE (Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education) classes provide opportunities to explore themes such as self-awareness, relationships, digital safety, and emotional regulation. The school also runs themed weeks and assemblies to reinforce SEL topics across year groups. These sessions aim to help students develop confidence, communication skills, and respectful interpersonal behaviour. Additional support is available for students who require targeted interventions.
The school supports students with mild to moderate learning needs through its Learning Support (LS) provision. Support may include one-to-one or small group sessions with LS staff, study skills assistance, and targeted in-class support. SEN provision is coordinated using an “Assess, Plan, Do, Review” model, and referrals are made based on teacher and parental input. Students with Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLDs), mild ADHD, or similar needs can typically be accommodated, though the school is not a specialist SEN institution. Access arrangements for assessments and exam accommodations are also available.
The school offers EAL support for students whose English is below age-level expectations. In Years 1–4, students follow an in-school EAL programme with targeted English instruction. In Years 5–9, the LEAP (Learning English with Accelerated Progress) programme provides an intensive, one-year English support track, allowing students to integrate into mainstream classes once sufficient proficiency is reached. The programmes use structured levels and regular progress reporting, and are delivered in small groups by specialist EAL staff.
The school promotes mental wellbeing through a dedicated pastoral care structure, especially in Secondary School. Each student is assigned a tutor who monitors their wellbeing and progress, supported by Heads of Year and a Head of Secondary Pastoral. There are weekly PSHE classes and assemblies where mental health topics may be addressed. Students also have access to a school counsellor for individual support. The pastoral team provides early intervention when concerns are raised.
St. Andrews Green Valley has a comprehensive Child Safeguarding Policy in place. All staff receive regular safeguarding training and are expected to report concerns through a structured referral system. The school has a designated Child Safeguarding Officer and team who manage concerns and ensure that procedures are followed. Safeguarding policies are aligned with guidance from international child protection standards. The school states its commitment to providing a safe and secure environment for all students.
