Sixth Form Health & Well-being

We take care to emphasise the importance of self-care and wellbeing in order for students to thrive academically.

Our experienced Sixth Form staff quickly get to know all the students as individuals and will always make the time to talk through any issues a student may be experiencing as well as signposting support to any student that needs this.

We encourage all students to find a healthy balance between their studies and their personal life, making time for friends and family as well as establishing good sleep habits, eating well and getting fresh air and exercise.

Health and Wellbeing Support

You will find below a variety of materials to support the well-being and mental health of Sixth Form students. There is also information for friends and family who may be supporting students.

This self-help material is intended to work alongside inputs from qualified health practitioners.  If there are concerns about the well-being or mental health of a Sixth Form student please contact the Sixth Form office.
