As a school, we take mental health and wellbeing very seriously and it is at the forefront of our school’s vision of leading a mentally healthy school so that 'all things are possible'.

'Leaders and teachers have high expectations for all pupils. They place equal emphasis on pupils' well-being and achievements.'    Ofsted 2022

We are committed to supporting the emotional health and wellbeing of our pupils and staff. We know that everyone experiences life challenges that can make us vulnerable and at times, anyone may need additional emotional support. We firmly believe that being mentally healthy is needed for us to cope with day to day life and needs to be prioritised in order for children to be ready for any other learning. On this page we will be sharing ideas about how to support your mental health and wellbeing.

At our school we: 

• help children to understand their emotions and feelings better
• help children feel comfortable sharing any concerns or worries
• help children socially to form and maintain relationships
• promote self-esteem and ensure children know that they are valued
• encourage children to be confident and believe in themselves
• help children to develop emotional resilience and to manage setback.

'Pupils appreciate how adults listen carefully to both sides of the story and make everyone feel valued and safe in school.'
