Wellbeing

Supporting the Emotional Well-being and Mental Health of Our School Community

Ashby Hill Top is proud to have been awarded 'Route to Resilience' accreditation for our commitment to wellbeing in school.

At Hill Top, we are committed to supporting the emotional health and wellbeing of our pupils and staff. We know that everyone experiences life challenges that can make us vulnerable and at times, anyone may need additional emotional support. We take the view that positive mental health is everybody’s business and that we all have a role to play.  

 
If you have any worries or concerns about your child’s emotional behaviour or well-being, then please let school know. There will be things we can do to help further and support you.

At our school we:

  • Help children to understand their emotions and feelings better
  • Help children feel comfortable sharing any concerns or worries
  • Help children socially to form and maintain relationships
  • Promote self-esteem and develop emotional resilience and to manage setbacks
  • Encourage children to be confident and ‘dare to be different’
​
We offer different levels of support:
Universal Support- To meet the needs of all our children through our overall ethos and our wider curriculum. For instance, through our character education program and PSHE curriculum

Additional support- For those who may have short term needs and those who may have been made vulnerable by life experiences such as bereavement.  
Targeted support- For pupils who need more differentiated support and resources or specific targeted interventions such as ELSA.

Specific support- School can signpost families to further support, e.g. school nurse referral, external counselling

Lead staff members:
Sylvie Newman: Mental Health and Emotional Wellbeing Lead 
Nicola Middleton: Mental Health First Aider

Juliet McAuliffe: SENCO
Nicola Walster: ELSA (Emotional Literacy Support Assistant)
