In addition, and where necessary, it will make referrals to external agencies such as the Local Authority (LA) and Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS).”

Students can access quiet and calm spaces for anxiety, sensory overload, emotional difficulties, or time away from the busy school environment.
“Student Support is an area accessed by students needing a quiet, safe space away from the busy school environment. In addition to the main study area, there is the ‘Chill Room’. Here students can take time to decompress, read or socialise quietly. It is also a calm space for students when they are experiencing high levels of anxiety, sensory overload or emotional difficulties.”
