Pastoral Support

The College is committed to ensuring that students with Specific Learning Difficulties, disabilities or other additional needs, including those in care and who are young carers themselves, are treated fairly and all reasonable adjustments to provision are made to allow them to reach their full potential. Our Additional Learning Team offers flexible support tailored to the individual student’s particular needs and is managed by our SEN Co-ordinator Caroline Sweeney (caroline.sweeney@solihullsfc.ac.uk).

At Solihull Sixth Form College, we aim to create a positive environment where students feel safe to talk about their mental health and wellbeing. This is led by our Mental Health Lead Bobbie Pidgeon.
