We are delighted to have been awarded the Healthy Schools Essential Award. Thank you to Mr Soper for leading on this. Highlights of our submission include:

Developing a clear understanding of pupil health and wellbeing needs using pupil voice surveys, attendance and safeguarding data, school health profiles and regular staff discussions. 

 Having clear processes in place to identify and support pupils at risk of poor physical or mental health, including parent liaison, school nurse drop‑in sessions and access to breakfast and after‑school provision. 

Ensuring pupil voice is heard through the School Council and Eco Team, with steps taken to include less vocal and more vulnerable pupils. 

Supporting staff mental health and wellbeing through regular wellbeing updates, visible wellbeing messaging, social events and a focus on workload management. 

Using a trauma‑informed approach across school practice, with emotional regulation taught throughout the curriculum and calm spaces available in classrooms. 

Promoting a positive food and drink environment, working with caterers to improve provision and adopting a water‑only approach.
