Pre-register for next academic year

How do you develop student leaders to become wellbeing champions?

'Developing student leaders into wellbeing champions involves providing training on mental health awareness, active listening, and peer support skills.'

What strategies nurture a culture of wellbeing and promote a sense of belonging within a school?

'It is important to stick to your intentions; so share carefully when you'll be meeting with your Wellbeing Ambassadors and ensure that you turn up regularly."

Why is the course spilt into two parts?

'The course is split into 2 parts as it allows for time for the professions to enrol and develop their wellbeing ambassadors. Part 1 concentrates on ‘why’ it's important to recruit wellbeing ambassadors and highlights the impact they can have in your school community. Part 2 focuses on the ‘how’ and how to develop a sustainable approach.'

Is necessary to attend part 1 in order to attend part 2?

Ideally it would be beneficial if you could attend both part 1 and part 2 of this training, as both sessions complement each other and help you to understand the reason and context around developing wellbeing ambassadors within your school.
