Mental Health Support Resource: The Teen Tips Online Wellbeing Hub

Fostering an environment that supports students' mental health and wellbeing is a top priority within the Impact Trust. We know that the best way to manage stressful circumstances is to understand we are in charge of our own health and wellbeing, and a proactive approach is the most successful. We are excited to let you know we have invested in an online resource platform, developed by experts in child and adolescent mental health and wellbeing. We have introduced this to staff and are in the process of rolling this out to students. As part of the package, we are able to offer all parents and carers free access to this valuable and extensive resource. Our agreement with The Teen Tips Wellbeing Hub hopes to engage our entire school community to take charge of their mental wellbeing by providing courses, articles, webinars on a huge range of topics, from feeling low to exam stress.

Kooth

Kooth is a free online mental health and wellbeing service available to all young people in Bromley aged 10-25.

Kooth offers free support with no waiting lists. Kooth is a safe and anonymous space for young people to talk about their wellbeing without the fear of judgement. They have clinical practitioners on hand to offer one-to-one support through text-based counselling, operating after school hours, on weekends, and during school holidays. Students can access the immediate help they need without a formal referral.

These posters contain information to remind students of Kooth as vital mental health and wellbeing support throughout the holidays. These resources and this video are also available to parents and carers, to remind them of Kooth's support.

LPGS was awarded the Optimus Wellbeing Award for Schools in July 2022.

During the assessment, the Assessor made the following comments:

“I also want to say it's been a pleasure working with you all this academic year which honestly, might have been the toughest one yet! I'm regularly talking about what a strong team you are and how much I admire the dedication and compassion you bring to your roles. Just this week, I was talking about the incredible flexibility you offer students who are struggling to attend school compared to some other schools. I'm looking forward to thinking further about the pastoral structures and how we can make it work more effectively for both you guys and the young people you are supporting.”
