Staff Wellbeing
Monthly Wellbeing Meetings
Staff Wellbeing Meetings take place once a month with the Inclusion Manager Ms Cynthia John. Please ask for the current meeting arrangements and dates.
Supervision and reflective support
- Referrals for supervision can be made through Mrs G Toma, Wellbeing Lead.
- Neofita Christou, Specialist CAMHS Practitioner, supports staff through consultation, advice and reflective practice to help identify appropriate support for students. She also works with EBSNA families and does not work directly with students.
- Staff supporting students in distress can discuss their support and development needs with the Wellbeing Lead. This reflects our WAMHS focus on the wellbeing of pastoral and SEND colleagues.
Education Support Employee Assistance Programme
The Education Support EAP offers confidential, impartial emotional and practical support, available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
- Call the support line: 08000 856 148.

Supporting a student
- Raise non-urgent wellbeing support needs with Mrs G Toma through the school’s agreed review process. Describe the concern, the student’s views, strategies tried and their impact.
- Follow the school safeguarding procedure promptly where a student may be at risk. Monthly wellbeing meetings and supervision do not replace immediate safeguarding action.
