Mental Health & Wellbeing

The mental health and wellbeing of the whole school community (pupils, parents/carers and staff) are fundamental to our school philosophy and ethos.

We aim to identify needs and offer support in a secure environment, providing children with a toolkit for life.

We recognise that children’s mental health is crucial to their wellbeing and can affect their learning and achievement.

At Hale Prep, we want all children to:

• feel confident in themselves and know that their thoughts and opinions are valued
• be able to understand and express a range of emotions appropriately
• be able to make and maintain strong relationships with others
• cope with stresses that arise in daily life, and manage setbacks
• feel comfortable sharing any concerns or worries
• learn and achieve

Introducing our Wellbeing Team:

Miss Rodgers, Miss Salinger, Mrs Halliwell, Mrs West, Miss Naylor and Mrs Vayro.

If you have concerns about how your child is coping or need any other support from the school, please speak to the form teacher, who will pass it on to a member of the Wellbeing Team, or you may find the links below useful:
