At Parayhouse, in addition to supporting students to assess their own emotional wellbeing and learn strategies for self-regulation, we ensure our staff are aware of signs of changes in students' emotional wellbeing and ways to support them.

We provide an environment where emotional wellbeing is support and encouraged and open communication is promoted and understand pathways of referral for more serious concerns.

As well as using Boxall Profile, a popular measurement tool used in schools to identify young people's particular mental health challenges, our staff can refer students to our school Drama Therapist for further support.

The school is in the process of further developing its formal Mental Health strategy in light of additional challenges since COVID-19.
