Children's wellbeing and mental health
In school we support children with their wellbeing in a variety of ways:
- We teach PSHE weekly using the Jigsaw programme with a focus on exploring feelings :
- We use the 5 point scale visual to support children to recognise how they are feeling.
- For some children who have more significant emotional or mental health difficulties we use ELSA support. - see separate page
- We can put in place a weekly catch up with a member of staff.
- Support from our Safeguarding Coordinator - Karen Harper.
- Time with Ozzy the dog.
- A mentor from St James Church - TLG.
- A referral to an outside agency.
