Deans

In 2026 we continue with pastoral support for our young people at Whakatāne High School.

We have Deans at each year level to make sure parents have a clear point of connection to the school at their child’s year level (in addition to this, parents will also have a connection via their child’s Student Mentor).

The Deans are responsible for developing a wellbeing program that supports students to be confident, resilient and connected learners. This change has been developed through self-review, student and whanau voice. We also have Junior and Senior Deans for greater support of our Te Aka Matua students.

See below for the list of Deans at each year level, and their contact details:
