Emotional Health and Well-being

At Woodcocks' Well we are dedicated to creating a safe place in a forever changing and fast paced world. A place where children develop the knowledge, understanding, and the skills to lead confident, independent and healthy lives as informed, active and responsible citizens.

At school we can provide specific support and advice if you have any concerns over the health, wellbeing and/or welfare of any child or family at our school.

Mrs Beckett - Designated Safeguarding Lead

Mrs McKie - Deputy Safeguarding Lead and ELSA lead

Additional and specific spiritual and pastoral support of pupils and/or families can be sought from, Rector Philip.
