We worked with other Sixth Form students based at KSHS to develop skills and understanding of how to listen, non-judgementally, to those seeking support and encourage them to get further advice.

The aim was to raise awareness of the importance of mental health and to promote the Student Well-Being Support system.  Some of the ideas that we are working to implement include an anonymous email, whereby students can seek advice from the Well-Being Team without the worry of speaking face-to-face.

We are working with the Carre’s mental health first aiders and Student Support to implement a Well-Being Hub, where the ambassadors and leadership team act as a place where younger students can talk to someone of their own age.  They can then be directed to any relevant support if required.

We believe that by having a Hub that students can easily access, it will encourage them to open a channel of peer-to-peer communication and reduce the stigma of mental health across the school.

Our roles as Mental Health Ambassadors will help to raise awareness and create a legacy within the school, that will last for years to come, where mental health is a priority for all students.
