Student Support
If you feel like you need emotional support, you must talk to someone and not allow yourself to feel overwhelmed with worry or anxiety.
Talk to someone you trust be that a parent, guardian, pastoral leader or another member of staff you trust. If you want to talk to someone anonymously then the following support networks are recommended:
