Our School Chaplain

 

The role of the School Chaplain is to support and guide students and staff through times of grief, stress and joy. They provide an independent outlet for students and staff and a support when things are troubling them.

 

Taking account of the definition of a chaplain, chaplains may:

• work as a member of the school’s wellbeing team in the delivery of student wellbeing services

• contribute to improving student engagement and connectedness

• contribute to providing a safe, inclusive and supportive learning environment

• provide pastoral care and guidance to students

• operate within the school community and with external providers.

 

The roles and responsibilities of chaplains could include:

• providing support in areas such as student attendance, engagement and mental health

• providing students with support and/or appropriate referrals in difficult situations such as during times  of grief, or when students are facing personal or emotional challenges

• providing pastoral care and guidance to students about values and ethical matters, referring students,  or sourcing appropriate services to meet their needs, which may involve access to services in the community

• supporting students and staff to create an environment that promotes the physical, emotional, social and intellectual  development and wellbeing of all students

• supporting students and staff to create an environment of cooperation and mutual respect, and promoting  an understanding of diversity within the range of cultures and relevant traditions.
