At the heart of Packwood’s Strategic Plan 2030, lies a focus on the importance of childhood joy and wholehearted wellbeing. Our mission – soaring performance, adventure, and character – is a daily commitment to building confident, spirited, and determined young people, anchored by our core values of tenacity, respect, and humility.
Pupils flourish when they feel happy, safe and valued. Packwood’s close-knit, home-from-home community ensures exactly that. Through proactive communication, our form tutors and pastoral team foster genuine connections, championing each child’s emotional health and sense of belonging. This nurturing environment cultivates kindness, empathy and collaboration, qualities that underpin both wellbeing and academic confidence.
Over the next five years, our strategy includes a deeper focus on mental health, expanding access to counselling, rolling out mental health training for staff and parents, and developing support programmes. Initiatives such as the mentoring programme for Forms 3–8, and the Year 8 leadership programme further reinforce our supportive fabric.
Our focus is nurturing not just academic excellence, but the wellbeing, joy and confidence of every Packwoodian. A vision that ensures our children leave us well prepared to flourish at senior school and beyond.
