We are delighted to have been honoured with Artsmark Platinum Award in March 2022. Despite the inevitable challenges which have affected schools throughout the pandemic, we strive to maintain a high standard in all areas of our creative provision which filters across our whole school setting and into the wider community.
The last 18 months have been particularly hard for young people’s mental health and wellbeing. Young people and their families in need of urgent help with their mental health can get free 24/7 support from trained NHS professionals by telephone.
The NHS has set up free telephone lines across London for young people in distress, open all day, every day, and staffed by trained mental health professionals. They can provide immediate support, or refer people to other sources of help if needed.
