At St Peter’s we aim to promote positive mental health for our pupils, staff team and wider community. We pursue this aim using workplace practices, universal, whole school approaches and specialised, targeted approaches aimed at vulnerable pupils.  In addition to promoting positive mental health, we aim to recognise and respond to mental ill health. 

We offer the bespoke services of Marisha Grant, our school counsellor, Aramide Salami, our Educational Mental Health Practitioner (EMHP) for direct work with our pupils, parents and staff, Jemma Folie, our school navigator who helps support families and pupils to access services and finally, Shevaughn Seedall our school nurse. Marisha, Arimide, and Jemma are in school once a week on a Tuesday and Shevaughn bi- weekly on a Wednesday.

Annually, we support World Mental Health Day in October and Children’s Mental Health week in February. In addition to this, we teach children strategies on how to help their wellbeing through our zones of regulation and PSHE curriculum.
