Health and wellbeing

We take a whole school approach to wellbeing. If a child is feeling safe, happy and confident they are more likely to learn at school and progress.

Support in school

There are specific targeted sessions weekly which promote ways for students to explore and understand how they can improve their wellbeing.

If a child is worried during the school day they can talk to their teachers, tutors and student progress leaders. If more support is needed then referrals can be put in place in school and with other outside agencies.

Your wellbeing matters. If you’re facing challenges or simply want to take care of your mental and physical health, there are plenty of resources available to help. This section provides links to trusted websites, helplines, and organisations that offer advice, guidance, and support tailored to young people.
