Mental Health & Wellbeing

We are committed to developing our own professional development around mental health and wellbeing; this ensures we are up to date with the latest approaches. We have recently made links with the NHS Mental Health Support Team and are working closely with our link Educational Mental Health Practitioner  to develop Mental Health provision within the school, raise awareness of Mental Health among pupils, parents/carers and provide low intensity intervention to pupils.

The schools nominated Senior Mental Health Practitioner is Miss E Partridge.

 

We recognise the importance of developing a culture where ‘it’s ok not to be ok!’.

Scouts

We are so excited to have made links with the 2nd Wombridge Scouts Group. This partnership is valued as we believe that learning goes beyond the walls of the classroom and school.

They recently delivered a whole school assembly sharing information about how scouts can support young people with their personal development, empower and make a positive contributions to their society.

The leaders were fantastic and weaved the school values of L.E.A.D into there presentation. We are enthusiastic about working with the team to develop exciting opportunities for the children of Wombridge in future collaborations.

Emotional Health and Wellbeing

At Wombridge Primary School we believe that all children and staff should feel secure, valued and happy at school. We strive to ensure that children are supported in all aspects of emotional health and wellbeing and they know who they can talk to if they are feeling sad or worried.

We are committed to providing a supportive, caring and safe environment in  which all children are free from the fear of being bullied. As a school we take bullying and its impact seriously.

Bullying behaviour is unacceptable in any form. The school has high expectations of outstanding behaviour.

Please see below the schools Anti-Bullying BUDDY code.
