Wellbeing Award 2023

The Wellbeing Award and Vision

In July 2023 we received the Wellbeing award!

What is the award?
This award has been developed in partnership with the National Children’s Bureau. They advocate the use of a ‘whole-school approach’ where all aspects of the school experience are harnessed to promote the emotional wellbeing and mental health of pupils and staff.

There are 8 objectives:

  •        Promoting and protecting positive wellbeing
  •        Having a clear vision of wellbeing in our school
  •        Promoting a positive culture
  •        Actively promoting staff wellbeing
  •        Prioritising professional learning
  •        Different types of Mental Health needs
  •        On-going participation of the whole school community.
  •        Partnership with other schools, agencies and specialist services.

Who was involved?
Mrs Whelan is lead the well-being award with a team of staff members and governors.  There were also opportunities for the parents and wider community to be involved.

Evaluations:
Both staff and parents were asked to take part in the online survey . The children also took part in some activities that contributed to the results. From these results, our strengths were highlighted, and an action plan created in order to make some improvements. The questions the children were asked can be found on the document below.

Our Wellbeing Vision
