The SEND department looks to support the well-being of students at a universal level as well as offering targeted interventions.
The SEND SEMH team is led by Mr Hilton. Heads of Year need to refer students to the programmes and interventions with the team. The interventions that happen use a Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) approach, which focuses on how your thoughts, beliefs and attitudes affect your feelings and behaviour; and teaches students coping skills for dealing with different problems.
The SEND SEMH support has two aims:
Our work includes programmes such as:
Drop in sessions: The SEND area is open every day for break and lunch. Students can drop in at any time to talk to our Education Support Staff.
A programme of break and lunch mindfulness activities encourage students to use mindfulness techniques as well as develop self-regulation and social skills
Referral to outside agencies: After the graduated approach we can refer to other agencies such as CAMHS if necessary to access further support and guidance for students.
