Mental Health Ambassadors

At the beginning of the year 12 students completed training to become part of a team of Park School Mental Health Ambassadors. The training was run by Education Mental Health practitioners who work for The Mental Health Support Team, Children and Family Health Devon. The chosen pupils are keen to share their learning around mental health and advertise the importance of self-care and have a responsibility for leading and promoting wellbeing throughout school. They will help to promote positive mental health and well-being amongst our students and will signpost students who are struggling with mild mental health difficulties to local and online support. The Mental Health Ambassadors will also provide peer support and a listening ear to pupils who are experiencing worries and anxieties during their school day.
