We recognise the direct link between positive mental health in schools and successful educational outcomes. The Trust promotes wellbeing for everyone in our schools. We are keen to reduce staff workload and develop more tangible staff benefits.
Champion Health
In 2021, we connected with Champion Health, on online platform to empower employee wellbeing through data, insight and action.
This offer to all staff underpins our commitment to employee wellbeing, and is designed to complement existing policies and approaches in each school. The approach will strengthen the wellbeing support for every member of staff, and our understanding of wellbeing across the trust so that this can guide future change.
