Wellbeing And Support For Students

Welcome to our Wellbeing and Support page. Below you find lots of useful information on the services we provide at school.

The Wellbeing Hub
This is a dedicated space to support the mental, emotional and physical health of students. We have a team of three Wellbeing Support Assistants, Ms Caulfield, Ms Curran and Ms Fahy,  who work with students on a one-to-one basis over several sessions to help reduce emotional dysregulation, enabling students to engage in learning within the classroom. In addition, they can help with anxiety, grief, stress and self-esteem. This Hub also offers support on an ad hoc basis and provides a quiet and calm space for students who might feel overwhelmed.

The Talking Hub – School Counsellors
Counselling is a talking therapy and can be accessed through a head of year referral. Counsellors can help with low mood, anxiety, grief, stress, bullying, relationships and self-esteem. We have two dedicated school counsellors, Jody Timms and Natalie McNamara, and they offer one-to-one sessions and group sessions to promote wellbeing and positive mental health.

Thrive
Thrive is an external specific mental health service and can be accessed through a head of year referral.

Wellbeing Award for Schools
The Wellbeing Award for Schools recognises outstanding work in promoting mental health and wellbeing within school communities across England. It supports schools in creating a culture where mental health can thrive, and helps them develop strategies for improving student wellbeing. We are currently working towards this award.
