Health, Wellbeing & Parent Support

 

Welcome to our designated Health, Wellbeing & Parent Support Page designed to help Parents & Children.

Our Vision: To equip young people with the knowledge, skills and mind-set to thrive and then take on the world!

At Sandringham Primary School, we take mental health and wellbeing very seriously and always have the wellbeing of our pupils, staff, and parents at the forefront of our school’s vision.

We are committed to supporting the emotional health of our school community. We know that everyone experiences life challenges that can make us vulnerable; we take the view that positive mental health is everybody’s business and we all have a role to play.

On this page you will find links to organisations, details of how they can help and how to contact information. If there is anything that we can do to support you or your family, please reach out to us by calling 01302 361880 or emailing admin@sandringham.elp.org.uk
