MENTAL HEALTH SUPPORT

”Wellbeing is a key priority within the Beauchamps family and promotion of positive mental health and wellbeing is embedding within the school community. We recognise dealing with issues such as anxiety, low mood, mental health, wellbeing, self-regulation, or bereavement can be a barrier to success.

We support students mental and emotional health in a range of ways in school:


Whole school approach

Quality first teaching which includes differentiations

Year Leads

Support which is guided by the pastoral team and takes place on site within the school day

In-school specialist support

Support which is likely to occur mostly outside the mainstream classroom but sill on school site

External specialist support

Support which is likely to occur using services external to school staff and may occur on or off school site

On school site, we offer a variety of support which include:

  • Year Leads mentoring
  • Wellbeing mentoring
  • Wellbeing drop-ins during break and lunch times
  • Thrive Approach sessions
  • Nurture Groups
  • Youth Worker
  • Bi-monthly visits from the school nurse
  • Young carers support
  • Social and Emotional support
  • Anxious School refusal support

Please look at the school’s easy read on accessing mental health: 

If a student is worried about their mental health or someone, they know at Beauchamps High School they are provided with a pathway in school that supports them to speak to staff member.
