Heads of Year

Parents will be aware that we take pride in the caring nature of the St Bede’s ethos. The first port of call for any problem is your child’s tutor, but we have a senior team of staff who oversee the pastoral work of the school. The first three years, key stage 3 (KS3) of the school are overseen by Assistant Headteacher Mrs Adams with Mr Mason as Head of Year 7, Miss Ramsdale, (Acting) Head of Year 8 and Mrs Wood, Head of Year 9 in charge of the individual year groups.
