Latest Resources & News
We want to share the latest news and research that will support your child and the whole family to live a mentally healthier life. Please use the latest information on this page to support you as a colleague or a family.
As of Summer 2023, we are currently taking part in a ‘Raising Attainment with Wellbeing’ project in school that focuses on the wellbeing of children and its importance in helping them to achieve well in school.
The aim of this project is to raise the profile of good mental health across the school and to support in helping positive experiences during the school day.
We are proud to say that we have now been named a 'Wellbeing Pioneer School’ and awarded a quality mark for this.
As we continue through this project and look at further improving the wellbeing of our children, staff and families, we hope to share lots more exciting initiatives with you.
Guidance & Resources
As a school that is in the heart of the community and places great emphasis in building positive relationships with parents we want to give parents the guidance and support they may require to support their child. We follow a Hampshire and NHS recognised approach called Back 2 Basics (please use the flower links to find out more). Our class teachers are the first step to discuss your concerns. This will help identifying if it may be something affecting their well-being in school. Afterwhich, if the teachers has siimlar concerns they will discuss with a member of the senior leadership team.
Below are some links and resources that will help you to understand more and consider adjustments that may need to be made at home.
Back 2 Basics - What is it and how will it help?
Off The Record's has created a series of videos to support people in playing an active part in improving their own mental health and wellbeing. The videos can be used on their own or with each other and they don't have to be done all at once.
