The Spire Federation- Support & Wellbeing
At The Spire Federation we are committed to promoting positive physical, mental health and emotional well-being for all pupils, families, members of staff and governors, so that all have the resilience to manage ‘normal’ stresses of life. We have put together some easy to use resources to help you look after your family's mental health and emotional well-being. We will keep adding to this as time goes on. We hope you find them useful. If you have any concerns about your child's wellbeing, please contact their class teacher.
