Year 6 School Health Questionnaire Results
Year 6 recently completed an online Health Questionnaire conducted by our School Health Team.  The school nurses have reviewed the children's responses and have put together a list of useful websites where the children can find further help on some of the issues raised.  Click the links below:
Childhood Anxiety and Mental Health
It is a known fact that mental health conditions in children are on the rise, with a recent NHS report indicating that as many as 4 children in a class of 30 could be contending with serious emotional disorders. 

The editor of mental health supporting educational guides, featured in the Guardian and the Telegraph,  recently collaborated with the Action for Children and The Children's Society and conducted a survey with Primary School parents in the area regarding their children's mental health.  

The results were alarming.  Despite many parents understanding that their children are suffering from anxiety or worrying about school - over 80% of these parents said they weren't sure how to help their children. 

They have just published The Expert Parent's Guide to Childhood Anxiety, aimed at supporting parents and their children whilst allowing them to focus on what matters most - attending school to learn, and maintaining good mental health!
