Mental Health and Emotional Well-being

Hello, I’m Miss Sullivan and I am currently the Learning Support Teacher for P1s – P7s, as well as the Wellbeing Champion for staff and pupils.                                                                                                                

We are a Being Well Doing Well school

The Being Well Doing Well (BWDW) programme is part of The Children & Young People’s Emotional Health & Wellbeing in Education Framework.

The programme aims to support schools to develop a Whole School Approach to Emotional Health and Wellbeing by resourcing them with:

  •  An Emotional Health & Wellbeing Framework to assist them to assess their current practice, identify needs and implement actions to develop the emotional health and wellbeing needs of everyone within the school;
  • A package of support which includes a BWDW Toolkit, advice, resources and training to assist them to improve the holistic outcomes of the whole school by addressing their emotional health and wellbeing needs; and
  • Emotional Health and Wellbeing outcomes which will reduce pupils barriers to learning and enhance their readiness to learn.
