Wellbeing

At Boroughbridge Primary School and Nursery we acknowledge the importance of positive wellbeing and emotional resilience. We are aware of how these factors play a part in academic achievement and can impact on long term life chances and happiness. We understand wellbeing as being able to cope with the normal stresses of everyday life and being able to enjoy feeling healthy, happy and comfortable. We will strive to provide an environment where our whole school community feels supported with their mental health. We will ensure that through having wellbeing at the heart of our school, that our learning is successful and that we can aim to be the best we can be.
