Home / What We Do / Mental Health and Wellbeing

Mental Health and Wellbeing

Our aim is to provide mental health and well-being advice, support and signposting for all of students, parents and staff.

We all have mental health and good mental health is a valuable asset that will allow you to complete tasks effectively and efficiently.

In order for us to support mental health and wellbeing we have a number of projects, support sessions, lessons, external agencies and activities in school.

We are continually updating our knowledge to allow us to drive forward our aim and to provide a platform that can be accessed by all.
