The Go-To
NHS North Yorkshire have launched a new website The Go-To For healthy minds in North Yorkshire – the home of wellbeing and mental health for young people in
North Yorkshire. The website is there to help you find the right help and support, to help you stay well, whatever is going on in your life.
It’s about you!
As a school we want to support every student’s return to school as best we can. We understand that everyone will have had a different experience during the pandemic
and students and parents will have varying feelings about students returning to school full time in September.
Look out for a google form, which will be sent to all students as we approach September. This is a chance for you to tell school staff about your experiences and
how you are feeling about returning, so that we can plan for your return. The health and wellbeing of our students is paramount – good mental health allows students to
learn and be the best that they can be.
