Supporting Mental Health
In the curriculum we directly teach our students about their emotional health. Our PSHE curriculum throughout all years focuses on developing resilience, understanding social and emotional learning, healthy habits and mental illness.
We aim to teach students to understand and love each subject for its own sake. We do not see GCSEs and A Levels as requirements to jump through examination hoops, but seek to make education an enjoyable and enriching experience.
In ensuring excellent behaviour we have a consistent whole school approach with clear routines of behaviour, well communicated social norms and familiar routines bringing a sense of calm. The key emphasis in our approach to behaviour is to allow young people to self-regulate, so they develop the skills of capable adulthood.
If you have any concerns about the mental health of a young person at Park House School, then please contact our mental health lead (Winnie Walters) at wwalters@parkhouseschool.org , his or her head of Year or safeguarding team
