Mental Health and Wellbeing

Promoting positive mental health

At Bickleigh Down Church of England Primary School, we believe in promoting positive mental health and emotional wellbeing to ensure that the school is a community where everyone is able to thrive.  Our school's vision of spurring each other on with love and our values of love, hope, aspiration, forgiveness and spirit underpin everything we do. 

What is mental health?

According to the World Health Organisation, mental health is a state of wellbeing in which everyone is able to fulfil their potential, manage everyday stressors, work professionally and fruitfully, and contribute to their community. 

Our emotional, psychological, and social wellbeing are all parts of mental health.  it influences the way we think, feel and behave. 

Both physical and emotional wellbeing are crucial for overall health.  Similar to physical health, mental health can be on a continuum from good to bad; it can change every day and over time.
