Miss
Bailey

I am the school's Pastoral Officer and one of the Deputy Designated Safeguarding Leads. This means I work alongside the Year Group Leaders, the Safeguarding Team and the wider Pastoral Team within

the school. I am currently in my first year at NHGS and can assure you it is a lovely, welcoming place to be.

My role in school is to help and support you with any academic or pastoral issues you may encounter during your time at NHGS. I have worked in two other secondary schools in Calderdale over the last

20 years in a wide variety of roles, supporting and engaging young people to reach their full potential, both academically and in their personal lives, by using a range of support such as

emotional well-being 1-1 sessions and group sessions.

I have been a DSL for the last 5 years so I am used to dealing with a variety of sensitive issues that young people may have to deal with during their school years. At times this may involve me working

alongside other external agencies, to ensure we best meet your needs to help you be safe, happy  and well.

You can find me in the Pastoral Office with Mr Kennedy and I am available in school Monday to Thursday 8am until 4pm and a Friday 8am until 3:30pm.

Out of school I enjoy walks and bike riding with my family and have just found a new hobby of trying to grow my own fruit and vegetables!
