At George Romney Junior School, we are committed to supporting the good mental health and wellbeing of our whole school community (children, staff, parents and carers).
We have a supportive and caring ethos based within our Core Values and our approach is respectful and kind, where each individual and contribution is valued.
We endeavour to ensure that children are able to manage times of change and stress and aim to ensure that they are supported to reach their potential or to access help when they need it.
We also have a role to ensure that children learn about what they can do to maintain positive mental health, what affects their mental health, how they can help reduce the stigma surrounding mental health issues, and where they can go if they need help and support.
At our school we know that everyone experiences life challenges that can make us vulnerable and at times, anyone may need additional emotional support. We take the view that positive mental health is everybody’s business and that we all have a role to play.
Our Mental Health Lead (Mr David Reddy), works closely with all staff but specifically the Mental Health & Well-being Working Party which review the current action plan on a termly basis and help support the school by working within the NHS eight-point evaluation tool. We also talk to School Council and gather the thoughts, ideas and opinions of the children so we can keep our school ‘A happy place to learn!’
