This week is Children's Mental Health which with the theme 'Let's Connect'. As a school, we are always looking to increase the way we can support children’s mental health both keeping it good when they feel well and helping them develop strategies in times of challenge.
We are delighted to launch The Pit Stop as a self-referral support for pupils. This will run on a Friday from 11:45am to 12:15pm with a member of staff following up self-referral slips that pupils have submitted to request some time to share their worries, solve problems or develop strategies to regulate their emotions.
Staff will track who attends a Pit Stop and will liaise with parents where there is a pattern or significant concern.
