Mental Health & Wellbeing

At Boundary Primary School, we care about your child/children beyond their academic abilities within the classroom and value each child as an individual whilst appreciating the ups and downs of life they each face.  The emotional health and well-being of your child is of up-most importance to us, as we want all children that come to our school to be happy and content and to achieve their full potential in life.

We have a highly experienced and trained pastoral team who are able to offer a variety of different interventions and support for both you and your children.  


Wellbeing Award

Wellbeing-Award-for-Schools---logo.jpg

Boundary Primary School has been awarded the Wellbeing Award, highlighting the excellent pastoral care offered to their pupils. The award focuses on ensuring that effective practices and provisions are in place to support and promote emotional wellbeing and mental health. The aim is to change the long-term culture of schools and reducing the stigma surrounding mental health. 

 


'Caring, helpful, resilient, confident, safe, supportive, friendly, trusting, happy, proud, fun and enjoyment were key descriptions given in the interviews, and these are core to the positive, empathetic and nurting culture of the school'
