The Wellbeing Award for Schools provides formal recognition that a school has met very high standards of provision for emotional wellbeing and mental health. It provides schools with a rigorous framework for implementing a range of strategies to bring about positive change for the wellbeing and mental health of the whole school.
The impact of the award on schools has been overwhelmingly positive. It has brought about tangible changes for schools who now view wellbeing as an essential and integral part of their culture, embedded into their school DNA. This research shows that the Wellbeing Award for Schools has had an impact in six key areas:
- Reduced stigma around mental health
- Improved pupil behaviour
- Improved pupil wellbeing
- Improved staff wellbeing
- Improved parental wellbeing
- Improved staff morale
