Overview

Good mental health is just as important as good physical health. If you break a leg you see a doctor and soon you will feel better. If you have asthma or diabetes you might need longer term support. It's the same with mental health; some things can be sorted out quickly but others might take a lot of time and support.

At Hollywood, we believe that teaching children and families about wellbeing is an educational right, an essential not an extracurricular! It is natural for everyone to have times when they feel things are a little more difficult than others but if those feelings stop someone from reaching their full potential, we believe it is vital to look at what support and strategies can be put in place. At Hollywood, we want to support pupils, their families and our staff.

We have begun building wellbeing naturally into our curriculum to teach children how to look after themselves and who can help them if and when they need it.
