Mental Health & Well-being

We know that looking after our mental health and wellbeing is as important as our physical health. Mental health and wellbeing are an integral part of our PSHE and Values programmes. We have recently been accredited with the Leeds Beckett University Silver Award for our commitment to supporting our school community with their mental health and wellbeing.
