Mental Health and Wellbeing – The 3-18 Education Trust

Inclusion, with regards to health and wellbeing, means recognising and addressing the diverse needs of every child with empathy and understanding.

It involves creating safe and nurturing environments where each child feels valued and supported, regardless of their background or experiences. By providing equitable access to resources, mental health support, and developing positive relationships, we help children build resilience and a strong sense of self-concept. This compassionate approach ensures that every child can overcome challenges and thrive, knowing they are an integral part of a caring community dedicated to their wider development and happiness.
