Mental Health
Now, more than ever, it is important to focus on our mental health and wellbeing. Many families are experiencing health scares, bereavements, hob losses, increased working hours, financial difficulties and the general pressures to manage personal and professional lives – all of which can have considerable impact on our children.
Supporting our pupils is paramount and our in-house counselling team is here to help those that need it. All appointments are by referral.
