In Larne Grammar a caring ethos is at the heart of everything that we do. The size of the school (735 pupils) and the strong pastoral system give rise to a very obvious “family atmosphere” in which all pupils are valued as individuals. The importance placed on the pastoral care of our pupils is reflected by, and embedded within, our school ethos and vision.
Pastoral Team
Although all staff share pastoral responsibility for our pupils, we have a dedicated team of staff at each year group to support pupils. The class tutors should be the first person to whom a student or parent/carer turns to for help or advice, although any member of staff can be approached.
