Support and Wellbeing

Tutor Support

You will have a dedicated Progress Tutor whilst at Huish who will support you both with your academic pursuits and your general wellbeing. They will be someone you can speak to, outside of your subject teachers, about any matter related to college, or from your life outside Huish. They will help guide you throughout your time at Huish.

You will also have weekly group tutorials where we will cover topics related to progression, health and wellbeing, study skills and monitoring and reflection and you will have time to complete independent study.
