Mental Health and Wellbeing
Policy Statement
At St Bees Village School we are committed to supporting the positive mental health and wellbeing of our whole school community (children, staff, parents and carers).
We have a supportive and caring ethos 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.
