emotional health & Wellbeing

We are committed to promoting the wellbeing and mental health of both our children and staff. Mrs Clay, our Assistant Headteacher and Wellbeing Lead and Mental Health Champion, plays a key role in ensuring that wellbeing remains at the heart of our school community.

All teaching staff have completed Raising Achievement Through Mental Wellbeing training, and we have a comprehensive action plan in place to support and further develop positive mental health and emotional wellbeing across the school.

Pastoral and Welfare Leader

Mrs Clay works Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday and works closely with children and families. She provides support to families throughout their educational journey and serves as a key point of contact for parents on matters relating to pupil welfare and wellbeing, including attendance, behaviour, safeguarding and family support.

Pastoral Teacher

Mrs Lawes works on Monday and Tuesday and provides direct support for children across the school. She leads nurture groups, offers targeted emotional and social support, and works closely with families and external agencies to help ensure that every child feels safe, valued and able to thrive.
