Woodlands Meed have received a Gold Wellbeing Award by Innovating Minds.

Innovating Minds work with schools to evaluate and improve mental health and wellbeing support. This is already a high priority at Woodlands Meed and our Well-being Leads advise and support class teams about the emotional needs of our pupils, which include their social, behavioural, personal development and positive mental health.

Chris Carter, Deputy Head Teacher at Woodlands Meed said on receiving the award ‘We are delighted that we have been awarded Gold; it means we are excelling! This is based on our current practice, and all our workaround calming, managing feelings, and regulating; essentially, supporting our pupils to maintain good mental health and an awareness of their mental wellbeing. We have also been given strategies and ideas to improve our practice even further which we will be implementing.’
