Year 10 to Year 12 Building on the foundation established in earlier years, Seymour's Senior School continues to encourage the pursuit of personal excellence, according to each girl's ability. The Senior School caters for Years 10 to 13 and has a proud record of achievement, with the majority of students continuing to tertiary study. Its teaching staff is caring, experienced and highly qualified. Many Seymour girls perform at the highest level, and all are encouraged to attain their own level of excellence. The concept of personal excellence encourages students to strive for improved results, whilst promoting self-esteem. In Senior School, the girls of each clan are placed in three vertically grouped forms, under the care of a Form Teacher closely associated with the Clan. Students then remain in this group for their time in Senior School, building a close relationship with their Form Teacher over this period. The Chief Guardian of each Clan has a coordinating role in the pastoral care of the Senior School girls in her Clan, adding another level of care for each student, in support of the Form Teacher and Head of Senior School. The mix of year levels in each form facilitates greater contact amongst Senior School students and creates a situation which reflects more closely the reality of tertiary institutions and the workplace, where individuals tend not to be so rigidly grouped as an age cohort. The pastoral care and extension program in Senior School helps students face the pressures and challenges of today's world. It encourages them to approach the future with confidence. To support students and parents, the College employs both a Student Counsellor and a Careers Counsellor.   RETURN TO TOP OF PAGE
