At Mevagissey School we promote good mental health and wellbeing for the whole school community and we encourage children to talk to a trusted adult in school to share any worries or anxieties.

We have a graduated response to issues involving mental health and our staff are always available to talk to parents and carers about any concerns they may have about their child.

We are also able to direct parents and carers to professional support outside of the school if needed.

 

Support for parents

Coping with a child with poor mental health can be extremely worrying.  We are here to support the children and their families so please do reach out to us.

There are many organisations who offer support and advice.
