Wellbeing & Mindfulness
Welcome to our Welbeing and Mindfulness page, maintained by the Wellbeing Lead, Mrs Troop.
Our teaching and learning of mental health and emotional wellbeing as part of a comprehensive PSHE education curriculum is vital. It promotes pupils’ wellbeing through an understanding of their own and others’ emotions and the development of healthy coping strategies.
All children have the confidence to approach any adult in school if they are worried about their own or someone else’s wellbeing.
