Mental Health and Wellbeing

In order to support mental health it is helpful to consider what we mean by this and how we can, as individuals, support our own mental health and those of the people we share the world with.

Central to our mental health is the relationship we have with ourselves and the experiences which have shaped us to date. Developing a coherent narrative of our lives is an ongoing process as we live and one which is well documented to support mental health (see Siegel 2010, Perry etc.)

The Triangle of Well-Being model (Siegel 2019) identifies the role of mind, brain and relationships to support our sense of self and which co-evolve to make up who we are and how we are in the world.

At Holy Trinity, our curriculum and approach to mental health are designed to support every child in developing a strong sense of self. We believe that children flourish when they understand themselves, recognise their core values, and learn how they want to relate to the world around them.

Our aim is to empower children to take responsibility for their own wellbeing by nurturing self-awareness, resilience, and emotional intelligence. This foundation helps them grow into confident individuals with a clear moral compass.

Below, you’ll find a range of documents outlining how the school and parents/carers can work together to support children with a variety of different needs.
