Tutor Groups

The care and support for the whole child throughout the period of their education at The Henry Cort Community College does not just begin in Year 7.  With our partner primary and junior schools, we operate a range of activities throughout Years 5 and 6 to help us to get to know your children.

These are supported by information evenings, visits and liaison work between Henry Cort staff and feeder school colleagues.  A particular effort is made to ensure that parents and students from beyond the Henry Cort cluster are assimilated quickly and easily.
 
The Henry Cort Community College operates a year-group tutor system.

There are 6 tutor groups in each cohort.  Tutors are responsible, under the guidance of the Head of Year, for all matters of immediate day-to-day care and organisation.  In addition to working with the whole tutor group, tutors spend time mentoring students on a one-to-one basis, which focusses on reviewing academic performance and setting targets to aid future progress.

Throughout the year, you will be invited to visit the college to discuss your child's progress and welfare in a formal manner. In addition, you are welcome to contact the college at other times, via Edulink.
