Counselling

We look after our students’ emotional health as well

We believe the emotional health of our students is just as important as their physical health and academic achievement. Happy students are more likely to adopt a positive attitude towards their education, and to do well both academically and socially.

All our staff offer pastoral support for our students, and we also offer counselling for those who need it. Sometimes a young person may need extra help with certain issues. These could be anything, from coping with their disability to growing up, friendships or sexuality issues.

A BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy)  senior accredited counsellor leads our counselling team.

We also have five part-time counsellors, including a play therapist and music therapist. The team is supported by a GP with specialist knowledge in child and adolescent mental health.

Counsellors work in confidence, but involve our chaplain, educational psychologist, health centre staff and other colleagues where appropriate.
