Essex Child and Wellbeing Service said, “It is very evident that the emotional health and wellbeing of your pupils are at the heart of the school, with a clear commitment by the senior leadership team, staff, pupils, parents and govenors to ensure that the pupils are happy, healthy and feel safe and listened to. There has been a clear commitment by everyone to ensure that effective strategies and projects are available for your pupils to utilise and have their voice heard. Well done on achieving your Enhanced Healthy School Status.”
Michelle Dutton PSHE Lead and Year 6 teacher , who led the initiative to achieve Enhanced status said, “Through the commitment of staff, we were able support our pupils through the unprecedented periods of lockdown – not just by adapting the way we teach, but by prioritising their mental health and wellbeing.”
Gina Bailey, Executive Head of St James’ said “Michelle and I attended an event over two years ago, where we were introduced to the idea of achieving Enhanced status. We knew that the school has absolute commitment to ensuring all our children being provided with excellent emotional and academic support, and at that time Michelle said that she was going to make sure St James’ achieved it. Well done to all the staff for a brilliant achievement!”
