Emotional Wellbeing
" ... while providing a nest to come home to."
At Overthorpe C of E Academy we are very proud of our emotional support, our mental health support and our well-being support, for pupils and staff.
The school is a member of "Kirklees Keep in Mind", which enables pupils to access additional workshops around well-being, staff to continue to develop their skills through appropriate training, parents to be supported by a trained support worker and pupil referrals to mental heath practioners to be made.

myHappymind
In order to support the positive mental health and wellbeing of our children, we follow the myHappymind initiative. Our myHappymind lessons are taught on a Monday, each week and follow a thematic approach so that all children in school, irrespective of the year group they are in, are learning about the same element of mental wellbeing.
