Wellbeing
Mental health problems affect around one in ten children and young people. They include depression, anxiety, self-harm etc and are often a direct response to what is happening in their lives.
To support the mental health and wellbeing of our staff and students, we are beginning to collate resources, which can be found on this page. Please keep checking over the coming weeks for updates...
