Mental Health and Wellbeing
Mental health is a state of well-being in which every individual realises his or her own potential, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to her or his community. (World Health Organisation)
Wellbeing is at the forefront of the School’s priorities. We believe in the importance of relationships, ensuring children feel valued, safe and secure and that they are provided with a sense of connection and a belonging to the whole school community. Promoting good mental health and wellbeing is central to this. Students follow a bespoke tutor programme that encompasses the 5 Ways to Wellbeing:
