Supporting Wellbeing and Mental Health

At Crowcombe and Stogumber C of E Primary Schools we consider supporting the wellbeing and mental health of our pupils, staff, governors and families to be of vital importance. We fundamentally believe that by working together in partnership with families we can have a positive and supportive impact on the wellbeing of all of our pupils, staff and families. With the support of our PFSA we are able to offer drop in sessions and tailored blocks of supports for children and their families. We also provide signposting for support and strategies that may help with a range of situations. Below you will find links and further signposting that maybe of benefit. If you would like any further support or advice please do contact us
